Ensure present on file resource
The present

attribute is ambiguous. You should use file
instead.

ensure => present,
}
What you should have done
file { '/etc/sudoers':
ensure => file,
}
Disabling the check
To disable this check, you can add --no-file_ensure-check
to your puppet-lint command line.
$ puppet-lint --no-file_ensure-check path/to/file.pp
Alternatively, if you’re calling puppet-lint via the Rake task, you should insert the following line to your Rakefile
.
PuppetLint.configuration.send('disable_file_ensure')
