Please don't try to pass false information like this as fact.
The dhcp package provides the dhcp server and the dhclient package provides
the dhcp client. Both can be installed at the same time:

[root at foreman11 ~]# rpm -qa |grep -E "(dhcp|dhclient)"
dhcp-common-4.1.1-31.0.1.P1.el6.centos.1.x86_64
dhclient-4.1.1-31.0.1.P1.el6.centos.1.x86_64
dhcp-4.1.1-31.0.1.P1.el6.centos.1.x86_64

Paolo, Can you provide the output of the yum command you used and can you
run 'rpm -qa |grep -E "(dhcp|dhclient)"' and provide that output as well?

Regards,
  Dennis
