In a sense, the whole point of fail() is for Puppet to not like it: its
purpose is to abort catalog building. I think you are mistaken, however;
the error message text is not consistent with the manifest code you
presented, so I don't think that specific code is directly related to your
problem. You may be looking at the wrong line or at the wrong file (maybe
the wrong version of the file). Perhaps you are looking at a manifest for
the wrong environment.
The result you described would be the natural effect of the fail() function
if the message reported in the log matched the function argument. The
message that is emitted is similar enough to the argument in the code you
presented, and the condition under which the function is called is enough
reminiscent of it, that I'm leaning toward the theory that you're looking
at the wrong version of the manifest, with the root problem being that an
unsupported (or no) value has been given for $ensure.
