No, your system has no bug, the new yum has sometimes troubles finding
the right packages. Even though the packages are there it does not
resolve a transaction to install them, so you either have to tell yum
manually, or use another tool like yum20 or apt.

The tools should not interfere (unless you start them concurrently),
so you are safe to use them together. synaptic is really a nice UI for
checking out uninstalled packages, and simply clicking them onto your
system.
