Hello Python package maintainers.

You might know that we are trying to rebuild the Python packages with Python 
3.8.

More info at https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Changes/Python3.8

As is usual with such Python upgrades, packages that parse the AST are imacted by the changes the most and they need a while to adapt. As a result, pylint is not yet ready for Python 3.8. Similar situation happened during the upgrade to Python 3.7.

I'd like to kindly ask you to stop buildrequiring and running pylint in Fedora RPM's %check (or similar), unless your package has a runtime dependency on it.

Pylint is an excellent tool and I appreciate that you care for code quality, however I don't think this is the purpose of %check.

Let me know if you'd like my help with depylinting your %checks.

The following packages BR python3-pylint (I've removed pocketlint and setuptools-lint where I suspect more complicated dependency reasons):

Maintainers by package:
buildstream          bochecha
copr-cli             clime dturecek frostyx msuchy praiskup
distro-info          suraia
gnome-abrt           ekulik jfilak mhabrnal mkutlak msuchy rluzynski
