Hi all, Please CC-me in all answers to this message, I am not subscribed to the mailing list. If I implement an abstract class in Python:

...

...

class Ancestor(object): def __init__(self): raise NotImplementedError

Then write a child class:

...

...

class Child(Ancestor): def __init__(self): return self

Pylint finds a warning W0231 super-init-not-called on the definition of Child.__init__. IMHO, it should not be the case, as a Child class will never call the constructor of the ancestor. Am I missing something? Best, Duna
