Yay, forget about my previous post, I got it wrong. I had to try it
myself to understand it. Now I get it - not only repoclosure checks
just the newest packages for broken dependencies, also those *dependant

it is intentional or not.

Well, yum is able to work around this problem, isn't it? It should just
select an older kernel for installation. I tried to simulate it on my
F12 machine by adding a repo, but I failed to be completely sure.
