class repository contains a "require repository::fedora" line (context

I've tracked it down to being a problem with 0.25.5. Using 2.6.3 the
require gets expanded correctly. Either solution I need to upgrade to 2.6.3.

I was previously calling puppetd which is not maintained by the 2.6.3
gem, so I was not actually testing 2.6.3. "puppet agent --test --noop"
works.

I now have large expanded_relationships graph with yum repos at the top
and a long line of Packages below.
