I haven't been following the other thread but what is wrong with:
* Yum class/module (which doesn't need to install Yum since it's in
base or whatever its called)
* Yum modules loads required repos (again you only need EPEL or any
other non-standard repos since CentOS is already in the pre-installed
repositories), installs any other packages, tasks etc.
Then add a require to your site.pp or to a base node or whatever:
Package { require => Class["yum"] }
That will include everything in the yum class prior to executing any
package resources. This doesn't work for you?
