This is my fault. I enabled the 'priority' plugin as a short-term fix
because we have a lot of repositories and I wasn't entirely sure which
ones could be discarded. The dell-omsa repo seems to have lost its
priority=1
line and the plugin seems to assume priority=<bignumber> and thus the
dell repo was being excluded.

Added the priority=1 line and everything installed OK.

(Yes I will tell him as he sits opposite me but the list deserved to know
the answer too.)
