SublimeLinter-flake8: SublimeLinter: ERROR: exception in flake8.check: 'module' object has no attribute 'builtin_vars'

I am just doing fresh Sublime Text 3 + SublimeLinter installation. I am getting the following:

reloading plugin SublimeLinter-flake8.linter
Traceback (most recent call last):

SystemError: super(): empty __class__ cell

Any idea what could cause this or how to start to diagnose the problem?

@sbromberger I spent 4 months writing SublimeLinter code and 3 weeks writing documentation. Since then, a total of 27 lines of code have been contributed to the core plugin, and I still spend hours per week on support. Until you have done or are ready to do the same — for free! — please don’t judge me. You have no idea what it’s like.

@vaxXxa @sbromberger Remove all other python related plugins via Package Control, quit, then kill > Packages/Cache and Packages/User/Package Control.cache, then restart and see if it still happens.

@zzzeek [blah blah blah]

@aparajita, your response to Mike completely put me off trying to help you troubleshoot this any further. I’ve switched to anaconda.

Good luck with your project.
