Since this week I noticed an error in the startup of the SublimeText 3. Puppet linter is now disabled cause of this.

Summary output of console:

Until this is fixed you can apply the fix locally by Customizing the package.

Steps:

1. Create directory Packages/SublimeLinter-contrib-puppet-lint under your sublime configuration directory.
2. Open the installed package Installed Packages/SublimeLinter-contrib-puppet-lint.sublime-package (it's a zip file)
3. Copy the linter.py file from the zip to the created Packages/SublimeLinter-contrib-puppet-lint
4. Edit the file with text editor, and apply the fixes provided in the @ShuosiWang's Pull Request fix: fix deprecated 'cls.syntax' problem #6.
   • Replace the syntax = 'puppet' line with:

         defaults = {
             'selector': 'source.puppet'
         } 

5. Now everything should work :)
