I have a similar problem but I use yum from the command line so it may be a
problem with yum itself.

I installed GeoIP from Centos 'extras' repo.  I also have dag setup as a
repo.  I have installed the protectbase plugin and it is enabled.  In
yum.conf I have enabled plugins.  In the Centos repo file, I have all Centos
repos protected and the dag repo set as unprotected.

Everytime I run yum update, it wants to 'replace' the geoip from the dag
repo.

What's up with that?

TIA
