So the real question is: why in heck did yum install an update of NM

The install process ignores dependencies it cannot satisfy because otherwise
you couldn't do an upgrade without added repositories.
I'm not following. Where is the use in allowing you to do a broken
upgrade? ISTM that in a situation like this it *should* fail until
you add on the needed additional repositories.
Anaconda may be doing things differently but yum has no facility built-in
for ignoring deps.
