Puppet Labs don't ship Augeas for EL6 in the community repo primarily
because the distribution already provides it (see #13436).

I don't think the idea of optional is to put up a barrier for
installation (given it's just --enablerepo=*optional* if you're using
Subscription Manager), but to clearly delimit the different support
given to those packages compared to the base channel.

There are other packages from optional that you'll find yourself
needing, e.g. libselinux-ruby, so I don't think ignoring it is that easy.
