epylint does not filter warnings

[pylint-bot]

this bug has been reported in Debian as https://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=737056

When running emacs with flymake/epylint warnings are shown just like errors.

In the epylint.py script the call to pylint is made with this message template:

'{path}:{line}: [{symbol}, {obj}] {msg}'

This template does not produce an output containing "W" or "E", and thus the
regexp won't match and replace correctly. Changing it to:

'{path}:{line}: [{msg_id}, {obj}] {msg}'

Made it work for me.

Is this still true? I'm not an user of epylint, so I don't know for sure, but I see that we are providing a msg_id though: https://bitbucket.org/logilab/pylint/src/f19a5231fb8e5f36fe83da72de47d18006f3a4a2/pylint/epylint.py?at=default#cl-92

In fact, it seems to have been fixed a couple of months ago: https://bitbucket.org/logilab/pylint/commits/19534ae2f8fbf178ac5cf7ab1905feca0c651907

gaah, sorry about that: I checked the code before submitting the issue, but I got it the other way around :(
