Thanks for the reply! Would you, by any chance, have a suggestion on how to avoid this behavior? Is there anything I can do so that when I do a yum install, it will always, and only, install the latest version of a certain package?

This may actually be a package handler (rpm, yum) issue, but it only happens with epel-release, so maybe someone in the epel community can explain this to me. the first time you installed the package shipped by centos in the extras repository. this one is version 7.9 once it was installed, the package brought in the path to the EPEL repository. when you ran yum update, you retrieved and installed the newer version that is shipped in EPEL. wolfy
