Absolute paths do not seem to work for pylint executable discovery
See original GitHub issueStep 1: Are you in the right place?
- I have verified there are no duplicate active or recent bugs, questions, or requests
- I have verified that I am using the latest version of the plugin.
Step 2: Describe your environment
- Plugin version:
0.11.0
- PyCharm/IDEA version:
Pycharm 2019.1.3
- Pylint version:
2.3.1
Step 3: Describe the problem:
Steps to reproduce:
- Python project uses a virtual environment
- An absolute path is given to the pylint plugin (either manually or automatically)
- It is unable to find the executable.
Observed Results:
- The executable was not found, it seems to expect a relative path based on the project source, not an absolute path
