Issue #5113 has been updated by Stefan Schulte.
Status changed from Accepted to Closed
Specifying the source actually is a noop as the yum provider does not make use
of the source parameter. The source parameter is e.g. evaluated when you use
the rpm provider:
<pre>
package { 'foo':
ensure => installed,
source => 'http://example.com/foo.rpm',
provider => rpm,
}
</pre>
The yumprovider ignores `source` so specifying `require` is enough and there is
no duplication. But the following two issues might interest you if I get the
intention of the bug report right: #901 and #2247

Feature #5113: Package provider yum should imply 'require' for yumrepo

If I define a yumrepo resource named 'myrepo' then have a package that has
source => Yumrepo['myrepo'], I still have to use require => Yumrepo['myrepo']
to ensure the repo is instantiated first. This seems like non-desirable
behavior and instead source => Yumrepo['myrepo'] should imply require.
