Puppet users - Dec 2009 - Purging unmanaged augeas entries?

I''m in the process of setting up sudoers entries to get managed by
augeas.  As
part of this, I''d ideally like to have any entries which
weren''t put there by
puppet to get purged out.  If I were using a more specific native type, like 
users or hosts, I''d just use a resource entry and set purge => true.

Is there any way I can get similar functionality with the augeas type?

you can get this behavior if you manage the file as file fragments. We are
currently working on publishing a module for this. In the mean time, volcane
has created a nice implementation.

If you can insure a suitable recent sudo, you can use sudo''s
#includedir
option and just manage a directory.
