Not really all that weird, except maybe that ISPManager is installing
repos behind your back.  (Puppet can manage those after installation
via Yumrepo resources, if you wish.)  It's not so uncommon for
different repos to fail to play together nicely, so one needs to be
careful about what repos one installs.  In some cases it may help to
install and use yum's "priorities" and/or "protect-base" plugins.
