cool, can we suppress in the interim?
Hmm the linting error looks like flake8 raising a ValueError. Wasn't able to reproduce this locally with the same venisons on mac.

```
could add `-v` to the flake8 call?
Got the lint error. All green.
Thanks a lot!
nice.  out of curiosity, what did the lint issue turn out to be?
@jbrockmendel it was an unused import. Odd that it would crated that `ValueError` in flake8
