I ran into this too - fortunately it was easy to take care of. Coren posted
about this a few days ago on this list. Text of his email with steps to
resolve are below.

Subject: [Labs-l] Possible (minor) issue in migration of tools
To: Wikimedia Labs <labs-l at lists.wikimedia.org>


Hello all,

There is a minor issue that affects about one tool in ten during
migration.  If you have successfully run the migrate-tool script in
pmtpa, but finish-migration in eqiad returns:

sudo: sorry, a password is required to run sudo

The tool's maintainer list was not synchronized correctly.  The fix is
simple:  simply go to the wikitech interface to make any change to the
list of maintainers (such as add or remove a maintainer) and save the
change -- you can undo the modification immediately afterwards.

This will make certain that the group is properly updated in LDAP within
a few minutes.  Once you have done this, logging out of eqiad then
logging back in will allow you to proceed with finish-migration.
