You can also tell the augeas type in puppet to use a specific lens[1]:

        augeas { something:
          context => ...,
          changes => ...,
          lens => "Ldap.lns",
          incl => "/etc/mystuff/.."
        }

Yes, the fact that augeas doesn't complain when a file can't be found is
a little surprising at first; but making it comlain about missing files
would make it unusable (e.g., a lot of lenses look by default for files
in the standard Debian and Red Hat locations; clearly, at least one of
those two won't be there on any given system)
