pylint #83780 run from source checkout [rejected]

it seems impossible to run pylint from source checkout, and that's sad =)

$ hg clone http://www.logilab.org/src/pylint
$ cd pylint
$ PYTHONPATH=. python lint.py --version
No config file found, using default configuration
lint.py 0.23.0,
astng 0.21.1, common 0.55.1
Python 2.7.2 (default, Oct 27 2011, 01:36:46)
[GCC 4.6.1 20111003 (Red Hat 4.6.1-10)]

pylint version in checkout is 0.25.x, not 0.23.0

as said, you shouldn't change the directory

[syt@scorpius src]$ PYTHONPATH=. pylint --version

pylint 0.25.1,

    cannot reproduce this one, please check if you haven't python alias involved...

    Try:

    env -i PYTHONPATH=. python lint.py --version

      The same result. Maybe you already have 0.25.x installed or no pylint installed system-wide at all? I experience this issue on Fedora 16.

        You should not change directory:

        hg clone http://www.logilab.org/src/pylint
PYTHONPATH=. python pylint/lint.py

          This work ok, but gives UserWarning:

          $ PYTHONPATH=. python pylint/lint.py --version
/usr/lib/python2.7/site-packages/logilab/__init__.py:3: UserWarning: Module pylint was already imported from /mnt/shared/p/pylint/__init__.pyc, but /usr/lib/python2.7/site-packages is being added to sys.path

          But the layout is strange (if not to say messy) - README and setup.py mixed with the source code that should be in the package. Why not create one more extra pylint/ directory with only source code inside? This will make it more evident how to run from checkout (at least README will be more visible).

    I can not reproduce this bug (using Fedora 16).

    You already filed a bug report there https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=756742
    indicating, there has been a problem running fedoras pylint.

    /me thinks, there exists another problem on your system.

      The issue at bugzilla is different - it's about poor forward compatibility of pylint.
