A very clever co-worker managed to come with a solution.
Changing package { 'mysql': provider => "yum", ensure => purged, } to package { 'mysql.x86-64': provider => "yum", ensure => purged, } solved the problem. I'm not sure why this works. I suspect it's because adding the ".x86-64" somehow prevents the pattern from matching Percona. I'm going to check this. This approach is easier than creating a custom fact.
