[dependabot]

Bumps pylint from 4.0.9 to 4.1.1.

Release notes

Sourced from pylint's releases.

v4.1.1

What's new in Pylint 4.1.1?

Release date: 2026-09-29

Other Changes

• Pylint 4.1.0 could not be uploaded to PyPI, because it required an unreleased version of dill on Python 3.15, and PyPI refuses such a dependency. 4.1.1 is the first 4.1 release available on PyPI, see the 4.1.0 changes below.

v4.1.0

What's new in Pylint 4.1.0?

Release date: 2026-09-29

Startup is about 25% faster thanks to lazy imports. The import checker caches its isort configuration, which makes pylint about 17% faster on ansible. Finding the files to lint with --recursive=y no longer walks ignored directories such as .venv or node_modules, which took seconds on large trees. The duplicate-code checker and symilar also received optimizations that result in considerable performance improvements and memory use reduction on larger codebases. For example, pandas analysis went from 20 min to 55 s and pylint does not get OOM-killed when analyzing cpython anymore.

Python 3.15 support progresses: the unpacking in comprehensions added by PEP 798 no longer raises false positives, and the standard library deprecations of Python 3.15 are followed.

For CI, there is a new built-in junit output format (--output-format=junit), the NO_COLOR and FORCE_COLOR environment variables are respected, and the files to lint can now be set with the files option in the configuration file.

New checks: looping-through-iterator, impossible-comparison, chained-comparison-all-equal and using-comprehension-unpacking-in-unsupported-version.

Running with --jobs no longer duplicates the messages of extensions or ignores extensions enabled in the configuration.

Plugin authors: the confidence parameter can no longer be None, except in is_message_enabled, and the MSG_STATE_* constants are deprecated in favor of the MessageDisableReason enum.

The required astroid version is now 4.3.2. See the astroid changelog for additional fixes, features, and performance improvements applicable to pylint.
