After some tries: I did not find an easy / simple way to solve this,
but i had the problem previousely as well. As far as I now remember,
this was due to yum 4.4.x / 4.5.x / 4.6.x mix up on guest/host.

This problem is related to as well here:

As far as I interpreted from your posts and above two links one would
need to us db_dump/db_load of the different versions to convert the
Packages database to the needed version. As I'm unsure which versions
you use where and already produced an destructive suggestion, I would
guess you better find and try out yourself and hopefully get your
solution by that hint ;-)

For myself the solution was in either up- or downgrading the yum/rpm
on the guest or host (can't really remember which way on which side,
but guess I downgraded on host side) which now brings me to an easy
build situation both on test as on production anvironments (running
debian on host, CentOS on several guests).
