What

Removed the deprecated suggestion-mode option from the pylint config.

Why

The suggestion-mode option was removed in newer versions of pylint, causing an E0015: Unrecognized option error that fails the super-linter CI job.

Notes

  • These errors were hidden until super-linter upgraded its bundled pylint version
  • Saw these errors here which made me check the version of python-lint in this repo and the config. Same issue here.
  • suggestion-mode was removed in 4.0 of pylint

Pull request overview

This PR fixes a pylint configuration error that was causing the super-linter CI job to fail. The suggestion-mode option was deprecated and removed in pylint 4.0, but remained in the repository's pylint configuration file. Since the repository uses pylint 4.0.4 (as specified in requirements-test.txt), this option causes an E0015: Unrecognized option error during linting.

Changes:

  • Removed the deprecated suggestion-mode configuration option from the pylint config file
