Well I mean we would just add puppetmaster bits into the katello-cert
rpm. This wiki explains what we actually do:

https://fedorahosted.org/katello/wiki/GuideSystemRegistrationClient#Option1preferredmethod:UsingthebootstrapRPM

and here you can see the RPM post inst script:

https://github.com/Katello/katello/blob/master/katello-configure/modules/certs/templates/rhsm-katello-reconfigure.erb

The RPM is generated during configuration of Katello, everything in
there is dynamic (and can be also re-generated with reapplying
katello-configure = puppet).
