I committed a check if the file exists locally in files/:

I have no idea how to fix this. Before lint is run, the normal Portfile 
evaluation takes place which happens platform dependent. It wouldn't be 
a solution just to add all variants and platforms, because they might be 
conflicting which could influence linting IMHO.
