yum install -y lxde
Loaded plugins: fastestmirror
Loading mirror speeds from cached hostfile
* base: mirrors.btte.net

Re: How to set the CentOS-Base.repo properly to install lxde
You will not find LXDE in the CentOS repos as we do not ship it. I don't see it in any of my third party (non-CentOS) yum repositories either - so not in EPEL or nux-dextop. There are other lightweight window managers around: xfce and MATE are both in EPEL and nux-dextop supplies some extra MATE packages as well.
The future appears to be RHEL or Debian. I think I'm going Debian.
