Steps to reproduce

Run pylint on the following code:

# pylint: enable=useless-suppression
from pylint import run_pylint
import astroid
from pylint import run_pyreverse # pylint: disable=ungrouped-imports

Current behavior

This message is issued:

4:0: I0021: Useless suppression of 'ungrouped-imports' (useless-suppression)

However, if the comment is removed from line 4, this message is issued:

4:0: C0412: Imports from package pylint are not grouped (ungrouped-imports)

Expected behavior

Since there is an actual message being suppressed, I would expect to get no useless-suppression message.

pylint --version output

pylint 2.0.1
astroid 2.0.1
Python 3.4.6 (default, Mar 22 2017, 12:26:13) [GCC]

Thanks, I can reproduce this bug. While useless-supression is inoffensive in the sense that it is not consider towards any score or not considered as an error per se, this bug shows that there is some inconsistency somewhere.

So this particular check as a quit early conditional before adding the message:

if not self.linter.is_message_enabled('ungrouped-imports', import_node.fromlineno):
      continue

Removing the line fixes the issue. Do we want to remove these guards to allow add_message to go through or disable useless-suppression for that check if locally disabled?

This is still an issue with

pylint==2.5.0
astroid==2.4.0

on Python 3.8.2.

I believe my example code is functionally identical to the OP's:

"""False-positive useless-suppression."""
# pylint: enable=useless-suppression
from numpy import array
from pandas import DataFrame

if True and True:
    from numpy import zeros  # pylint:disable=ungrouped-imports

print(array, DataFrame, zeros)

This code gives

bug.py:7:0: I0021: Useless suppression of 'ungrouped-imports' (useless-suppression)

If you remove # pylint:disable=ungrouped-imports, you get

bug.py:7:4: C0412: Imports from package numpy are not grouped (ungrouped-imports)

Please know that the example in #2366 (comment) is functionally different because according to #4212 (comment), the ungrouped-imports is actually unexpected there, so the useless-suppression is expected. I filed #4360.

Prospector 1.4.1 fixes

Major changes:
- Return None in mount_single_layer function when something goes
  wrong. Do a check for the target_dir string existing before passing
  it on for analysis.
- Return None for DriverManager try-except calls when there is a
  NoMatches exception. This modifies all instantiations of Stevedore's
  DriverManager class.
- Iterate over the dictionary using .items() rather than just the plain
  dictionary.
- Use "with" to open files and subprocess pipes. This may result in
  certain errors not being raised, but it is hard to know at this
  point.

Minor changes:
- Used the "maxsplit" argument in __main__.py as we only need the
  first item.
- Used [] rather than list() to initialize lists.
- Specify encoding as 'utf-8' when opening files.
- Update re-raises to explicitly state which exception they are
  re-raising from using "from".
- Use "enumerate" for looping through list's index while throwing
  out the unused value.
- Suppressed the "useless-suppression" message along with
  "too-many-branches" suppression due to pylint bug:
  pylint-dev/pylint#2366
- Wraped some lines that were too long, except in the HTML format
  file due to the need to keep the literal HTML formatting.
- Updated the year on some modified files.

This also adds a new method to ``MessagesHandlerMixIn`` which
adds messages to the list of the ignored messages without doing anything
else. This will be useful for some other ``useless-suppression``
false positives.
This closes pylint-dev#2366
