This is intended behavior for the yum package in EPEL. CentOS users will already have yum installed and should not get this package; RHEL users would be using up2date for package installs. This package is simply intended as a dependency for things like createrepo when used on RHEL 4 where yum wasn't shipped as part of the base distro.
