Hi, what version of puppet is this? Does "puppetd --test --noop -dv" give you (near the top of the output) any indication why it doesn't use the "yum" provider for packages? There are cases where a provider works, but isn't correctly recognized as default on a system. You can include 'provider => "yum"' in your package resources in this case.
