Thanks again.  I do appreciate you looking into this.  Yep, it solves the 
problem, sort of.  Just as Puppet Omnibus sort of solves the problem.  I 
have a few odd commands to run to enable a still very old Ruby 1.9.3, then 
a binary that appears in /opt/rh/ruby193/root/usr/bin/ruby and none of this 
is really documented.

Anyway, I'm all ranted out. :)  Seriously, tell someone to put the RPMs on 
the yum repo and document it.

If you'd like my feedback on all the yaks we have been shaving with puppet 
open source, I'll send you a private email.

Kind regards,
Alex
