Alternatively, you can use two-step approach to install RPM located at
Puppet Master:
1. Copy the rpm file from Puppet Master to Puppet Agent
2. Install the rpm file on Puppet Agent from local path
This looks like following:
class ...{
...
package { 'python-boto':
ensure => installed,
Creating your own repo obviously will come in handy, but here is
another option. The problem is that the default package provider you
are using (probably yum) does not support the puppet protocol for
retrieving packages. What I have done in a couple of cases is put the
package on a web server and
yes, it does, starting on my repo now.
thanks

High-level explanation:
You need to create a Yum repository
