You want you money back? ;) 

It's just out of sync public mirrors compared to centos.org main servers.

out of sync public mirrors issue: when updates are pushed and metadata
generated, sometimes the public mirrors are not pulling the complete set of
files.

Since CentOS do not control the public mirrors action,
one needs to wait the next round of sync (usually between 4/6h).

possible workaround: wget the file/yum localinstall or wait
