Alternatively, you may want to check more thoroughly whether /var/lib/puppet/lib/facter/util/warranty.rb is in fact readable *to Puppet* in the relevant context. In addition to the ordinary permission bits, it is possible that POSIX ACLs or mandatory access controls (i.e. SELinux) might prevent access to the file from the Puppet agent. For SELinux, it could be that even though the relevant user (probably root) can read the file under other circumstances, the agent still cannot. And switching SELinux from permissive to enforcing mode is something that can be done quickly and easily without rebooting, perhaps even automatically, and not necessarily with full comprehension of its effects.
