bug? concerning "install" needing to "upgrade" dependancies...

Hi. This appears to be a bug. I'm trying to install certain packages,
which have dependancies that are *specific versions* of packages
higher than those already installed. Because the dependancy check
fails, yum tries to "install", which fails due to conflicts.

It seems the correct behavior would be for yum to figure out that the
version
is what's wrong, not non-existence, and automatically do an "upgrade"
of those components, even though the command line was "install",
as we're operating on a depedancy tree.

Thoughts?
