Did it regress in what way?

This code shows what I'm talking about:

#!/usr/local/cpython-3.5/bin/python3

# pylint: disable=superfluous-parens

'''Test if pylint can see into namedtuples yet'''

from __future__ import print_function

import collections

class SimpleClass(object): '''Just a container: used to test if pylint sees we have no jkl member''' def __init__(self): self.abc = 5 self.ghi = 6

def main(): '''Main function''' named_tuple = collections.namedtuple('named_tuple', field_names='abc ghi') named_tuple.abc = 5 named_tuple.ghi = 6 print(named_tuple.abc) print(named_tuple.ghi) # This tracebacks, without a pylint warning print(named_tuple.jkl)

simple_class = SimpleClass() print(simple_class.abc) print(simple_class.ghi) # pylint catches this one! print(simple_class.jkl)

main()

I'm using:

$ /usr/local/cpython-3.5/bin/pylint --version No config file found, using default configuration pylint 1.5.4, astroid 1.4.4 Python 3.5.0 (default, Feb 8 2016, 13:56:41) [GCC 4.8.4]

Should I be doing something differently?

If it is a bug, where should I report it? I googled for about twenty minutes trying to find The Right Place, but came up with nothing.

https://github.com/PyCQA/pylint or https://github.com/PyCQA/astroid would be the places to file bugs if you know where the problem exists.

Cheers, Ian
