Do you actually have a need to use the filebucked on the client? You can
disabling backups for any individual file resource with:
file { "/foo/bar":
backup => false,
}
and many people in fact set this with a global resource default, and
explicitly backup files they care about by setting backup to true for those
individual resources, like:
File { backup => false, }
file { "/etc/important-file":
backup => true,
}

You could also choose to use the tidy resource type to manage the bucket
itself.
