      The duplications reported are not properly attributed to the files where they were actually found.

      Why? The pylint similarities checker computes the duplications at the end of the process, hence they are not associated with the actual files. This issue is solved by outputting the details as a part of the message in the following format:

      Sample output for report R0801
      completely_unrelated_module.py:1: [R0801] Similar lines in 2 files
==myapp.package.module:366
==myapp.package2.module2:262
    def do_something(self):
        if self.exists():
            continue
        else:
            raise Exception()

          This also means the type of error is not discernable. The error ID and error description would normally be displayed against the relevant line of source code, but the source code displayed is from the wrong file, so no errors are visible.

          The violations plugin is deprecated. It has an unresolved security vulnerability. The last commit to the source code repository was over 7 years ago. Closing the issue as "Won't fix"
