Oh and to finish off the other obvious end of that question.

You need to enable base because Citrix has disabled it specifically so that
you don't go messing up their dom0 =)

e.g.

[root@vh04 yum.repos.d]# grep enabled *
CentOS-Base.repo:enabled=0
CentOS-Base.repo:enabled=0
CentOS-Base.repo:enabled=0
CentOS-Base.repo:enabled=0
CentOS-Base.repo:enabled=0
CentOS-Base.repo:enabled=0
CentOS-Debuginfo.repo:enabled=0
CentOS-Media.repo:enabled=0
CentOS-Vault.repo:enabled=0
CentOS-Vault.repo:enabled=0
CentOS-Vault.repo:enabled=0
CentOS-Vault.repo:enabled=0
CentOS-Vault.repo:enabled=0
