Are you aware of the collector and chaining?
Yumrepo <| tag == ‘myrepos_first’ |> -> Package <| tag ==
‘mypackages_afterwards’ |>
This ensures that all yumrepos (with tag) are declared prior the package (with
tag) gets managed.

AFAIK this is not possible.
stage is a metaparameter so you can not use it as a parameter in a class.
Attaching classes to a stage must be done via class declaration as resource
type.
