This is a bug in the pylint package in Ubuntu, which has a wrong
versioned
dependency on python-logilab-common. You should report this bug to
ubuntu
using the reportbug command.

Which version of python-logilab-common and python-logilab-astng are
installed on your machine ?

You are probably picking up the system installation of logilab-common
when you
do this.

I don't know where you checked, but there is some traffic on the
mailing list,
and questions generally get answered :-)

(http://lists.logilab.org/pipermail/python-projects/ is the correct
place)

pylint 0.14.0 should work fine with logilab-common 0.33.0 and astng
0.17.2

Our Debian packages state that it should even work with logilab-common
>= 0.22.0
and astng >= 0.17.1 (although to be perfectly honnest, I'm not sure
that we have
tested pylint with logilab-common 0.22.0, so we could be the ones who
introduced
the bug in the Ubuntu package).

Hope this helps,
