Bug description

Crash when running pylint on leo/core/leoGlobals.py and leo\core\leoAst.py.

The files are too long to give here. You can find them both at

All Leo files are covered by the MIT license.

Configuration

C:\Users\Dev\.leo\.pylintrc available upon request.

Command used

pylint leo\core\leoGlobals.py

Equivalent to:

python -m pylint --rcfile C:\Users\Dev\.leo\.pylintrc %*

Reverting to pylint 3.2.7 solves the problem:

pip install --force-reinstall -v "pylint==3.2.7"

None of the following work for me:

pip install --force-reinstall -v "astroid==3.3.0"
pip install --force-reinstall -v "astroid==3.3.3"
pip install --force-reinstall -v "pylint==3.3.0"
pip install --force-reinstall -v "pylint==3.3.3"

nickdrozd · 2024-09-21T15:50:22Z

Reproducing example:

class A:
    def f(self):
        return f"{self.x:}"

Another:

class A:
    @staticmethod
    def f(x):
        return f"{x:}"

edreamleo · 2024-09-21T15:55:09Z

@nickdrozd Thanks for the short examples!

nickdrozd · 2024-09-22T04:10:50Z

Perhaps the smallest reproducer of all:

_ = f"{x:}"

edreamleo · 2024-09-22T17:28:14Z

@nickdrozd Thanks for the quick work!

Removing the empty format specifiers (they were unintentional cruft) allows pylint handles all of Leo's source without crashing.
