Oh, I see. BTW I noticed in the mentioned link:

report on the problem as of Mar 21 '13 (with 5 upvotes for the solution).

So the problem is not recent.

================================================================

Only pylint is available in Cygwin. May be I haven't tried hard but I see no
anything corresponding to Debian's:

  pycodestyle (or pep8)
  python3-pyflakes
  python3-mccabe
  python3-pydocstyle
  bandit

Still pylint was useful (I spotted shadowing built-in function "id" by global
variable).

I'll try to figure out how can I get them in venv, it is not that crucial to
have them bundled in Cygwin.
