Win7/Python3.3: PyLint failed to load its plugins

Question

Good evening! I have installed pylint on python 3.3 and got following problem: at initialization step pylint fails to load plugin modules (from package pylint.checkers). Thanks to debuging I found that problem is in the comand

module = __import__(basename, globals(), globals(), None)

which is executed from __init__.py of the checkers package. basename is correct name of module (file) inside this package but without extension (I have checked this). However ImportError exception is raised. I culdn't step into __import__ function so I don't know what is exact reason of the exception. Is there any way to find out if it is bug of new version of python, incompatibility of pylint and new version of python or my fault (may be in configuring of python or installing of pylint)? My OS is Windows 7.

P.S. Sorry for my weak English. It isn't my native language.

Answer 1

As of 0.26, Python 3.3 is not supported by Pylint. Logilab mainly works with Python 2.x and so help with the most recent 3.x versions is deeply appreciated.
