py27-lint @1.6.5_0: build fails with infinite recursion (py36-lint OK)

[JDLH (Jim DeLaHunt)]

When I try to install py27-lint, the build fails with a "command execution failed" error. Looking at the log, I see in infinite recursion sequence in the code. By contrast, I can build py36-lint with no problem.

% port installed 'py*lint'
The following ports are currently installed:
  py-pylint @1.4.3_1 (active)
  py27-pylint @1.4.3_1 (active)

In the future, please fill in the Port field and Cc the port maintainers (port info --maintainers py27-pylint), if any.

Can you try the newest version 1.7.1 - it works for me.

[kurthindenburg (Kurt Hindenburg)]

reopen if you still have issues

Sorry, didn't notice the fix message 4 months ago. Yes, installing py27-pylint @1.7.4_0 works successfully for me. I agree, bug is fixed.
