You are not the first to be confused by that - it is almost a FAQ on the
forum; however it is the expected behavior - yum will install the latest
version of a package available and kernel-headers does not depend on the
kernel version. You should be able to use "rpm -i --oldpackage ..." to
install the version matching your kernel.
