Well no go with metadata_expire or a yum clean all after updating the repo. This appears to be a bug of some sort. Debugging output shows before any packages checked this output:
debug: Prefetching yum resources for package debug: Puppet::Type::Package::ProviderYum: Executing '/bin/rpm --version' debug: Puppet::Type::Package::ProviderYum: Executing '/bin/rpm -qa --nosignature --nodigest --qf '%{NAME} %|EPOCH?{%{EPOCH}}:{0}| %{VERSION} %{RELEASE} %{ARCH} '' debug: Puppet::Type::Package::ProviderYum: Executing '/usr/bin/python /usr/lib/ruby/site_ruby/1.8/puppet/provider/package/yumhelper.py' I am thinking puppet somehow uses this information throughout the puppet run, to verify packages are the latest. The obvious problem is this doesnt get updated if a repo is updated. Hopefully I can get this worded correctly and into a bug report.
