When running the latest ~ARCH version of pylint, 1.5.5, the following error is thrown: ``` Traceback (most recent call last): File "/usr/lib64/python3.4/site-packages/pkg_resources/__init__.py", line 635, in _build_master ws.require(__requires__) File "/usr/lib64/python3.4/site-packages/pkg_resources/__init__.py", line 942, in require needed = self.resolve(parse_requirements(requirements)) File "/usr/lib64/python3.4/site-packages/pkg_resources/__init__.py", line 834, in resolve raise VersionConflict(dist, req).with_context(dependent_req) pkg_resources.ContextualVersionConflict: (astroid 1.4.4 (/usr/lib64/python3.4/site-packages), Requirement.parse('astroid<1.5.0,>=1.4.5'), {'pylint'}) During handling of the above exception, another exception occurred: Traceback (most recent call last): File "/usr/lib/python-exec/python3.4/pylint", line 5, in <module> from pkg_resources import load_entry_point File "/usr/lib64/python3.4/site-packages/pkg_resources/__init__.py", line 2900, in <module> @_call_aside File "/usr/lib64/python3.4/site-packages/pkg_resources/__init__.py", line 2886, in _call_aside f(*args, **kwargs) File "/usr/lib64/python3.4/site-packages/pkg_resources/__init__.py", line 2913, in _initialize_master_working_set working_set = WorkingSet._build_master() File "/usr/lib64/python3.4/site-packages/pkg_resources/__init__.py", line 637, in _build_master return cls._build_from_requirements(__requires__) File "/usr/lib64/python3.4/site-packages/pkg_resources/__init__.py", line 650, in _build_from_requirements dists = ws.resolve(reqs, Environment()) File "/usr/lib64/python3.4/site-packages/pkg_resources/__init__.py", line 829, in resolve raise DistributionNotFound(req, requirers) pkg_resources.DistributionNotFound: The 'astroid<1.5.0,>=1.4.5' distribution was not found and is required by pylint ``` When I checked my version of pylint to ensure an update wasn't required, I found that the latest version in the tree was dev-python/astroid-1.4.4. Looks like we're just missing the latest version of astroid for this version of pylint and the dependence on astroid needs to be tightened.
I will throw together a bump for astroid and a fix for pylint as soon as I can but anyone should feel free to do this if they get to it before I do.
Testing astroid bump in my overlay, will merge after proven successful.
Sorry,I saw your second comment too late. Sorry for the inconvenience. commit d0b6555ad31bba3795eee06e2a04a6c8abd1192d Author: Manuel Rüger <mrueg@gentoo.org> Date: Mon Apr 4 20:49:16 2016 +0200 dev-python/pylint: Restrict dep on astroid Gentoo-Bug: #579034 Package-Manager: portage-2.2.28
