The last instances of
try:
...
except:
...
were removed in bf98ffca. The sideci.yml file was updated, but the
flake8 config still allows this. Ensure that flake8 tests fail if this
questionable construct appears again.
We're using these now, so having some error checking to make sure we
don't have paths were we're trying to instantiate an abstract class
would be good.
This catches some very real errors.
The one in scalapack is pretty silly actually, it's failing to figure
out that the exploded list is at least two arguments. However, the code
is actually clearer by not using a list and exploding it, so I've done
that and pylint is happy too.
D lang compilers have an option -release (or similar) which turns off
asserts, contracts, and other runtime type checking. This patch wires
that up to the b_ndebug flag.
