While install the puppet dashboard, I noticed puppetlabs yum repo changed from using "http://yum.puppetlabs.com/RPM-GPG-KEY-reductive" to "http://yum.puppetlabs.com/RPM-GPG-KEY-puppet" causing yum to fail on the key import. I had run the key import manually couple times before I realized, yum was complaining about a different key.

I downloaded the centos source rpm and rebuilt it for redhat4 as described below:
