Adam, thanks for your answer.
First of all, I know that the "not_if" isn't necessary, but as I have noticed,
providing that not_if in all my yum_package resources makes the run complete
much faster than without it. When yum_package provider checks to see if the
package is installed, it might take up to 10 sec to complete, whereas "not_if
rpm -qa" needs much less. So, that's the only reason I use it.
Now, as for the "/etc/munin" directory.. I have tried installing the package
from the command line and the directory is created with the "yum install
munin-package" command. But as I mentioned earlier, when setting a retry on 
the
yum_package resource and a delay everything worked as expected. The directory
was created by the time the next resource (template file) was executed.
So, is there,maybe some part of yum_package running at the background maybe?

Thanks again!
