Description

On EL6, we currently have the following repos:

1. base OS
2. Foreman
3. EPEL
4. SCL

Optionally, you can add Puppet Labs for an alternative Puppet package.

When the Puppet Labs repo is enabled, we're only pulling about six dependencies from EPEL, so it seems to me that we could make EPEL optional by mirroring some of these ourselves (literally pulling RPMs in?).

This way, users are given the choice of using:

1. base, Foreman, SCL, Puppet Labs
2. base, Foreman, SCL, EPEL

Reducing the number of configured repos, and also making EPEL optional in the first case.
