Description Vojtech Trefny 2017-04-05 07:30:52 UTC

After the latest update, pylint binaries are named "pylint-3.6". This is really unfortunate decision. We use pylint in our tests to automatically check the code and this change makes it nearly impossible to do -- we run the tests on multiple versions of Fedora and now every version is going to have a different command to run pylint.

Please bring back "python3-pylint" (or something like "pylint-3" if it works better). It can be just a symlink for the "pylint-3.x" executable.

Hi,

The same happens for the Anaconda project. We are using PocketLint which is wrapper around Pylint and this is the test blocker for us on F26 and Rawhide.

pylint-3 would be indeed required by our Guidelines https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Packaging:Python#Naming so we have to add that.

@Orion: As you made the spec file rework with these changes and are more familiar with it: Can you add this, for both Python 2 and 3 (so we have pylint-2 and pylint-3 in addition)? I'm very busy within these days.

Comment 3 Orion Poplawski 2017-04-06 04:00:55 UTC

Sorry to drop the major version names.  New package with pylint-2/3 coming shortly.
