Here's my other hang up with it.
If the user issued:
yum install zsh
Does it seem right to check for a yum update and/or rpm updates before
doing what the user asked?
I think we'd be better served with making this better via dependencies. If
you cannot use your current rpm to install the pkgs updates that are
available it should fail long before the transaction.
