Suspicious state from syntax checker python-pycompile

[isker]

Hi. There seems to be some sort of issue with the formatting of errors coming from python-pycompile.

The code

for foo in bar:
    []

where the brackets signify the cursor position produces this flycheck output.

Suspicious state from syntax checker python-pycompile: Checker python-pycompile returned non-zero exit code 1, but no errors from output: Sorry: IndentationError: expected an indented block (test.py, line 2) Checker definition probably flawed.

This definitely seems to be a valid error. My grasp of elisp is minimal so I can't really follow the checker's function to see why this is considered suspicious.

M-x flycheck-version produces Flycheck version: 0.24snapshot (package: 20150412.242).

@CannedYerins Apparently the error regexp is incomplete.

I'd recommend you to use Pylint or flake8 for Python, though.

@CannedYerins Totally forgot about this: Can you tell me your Python version?

2.7.9

@CannedYerins Should be fixed now. Please check with the next MELPA build.

Hi Lunaryorn,

I am facing similar issue while opening python code in emacs with flake8
Suspicious state from syntax checker python-flake8: Checker python-flake8 returned non-zero exit code 1, but no errors from output:Checker definition probably flawed.

i am using
Flycheck version: 0.24snapshot (package: 20150612.235)

and python version
Python 2.7.6

@omps That's a different problem, so please open a separate issue. But before doing so, please check that flake8 is generally working on your system.
