use uses: github/super-linter@v3.17.0 works, thanks

Hey all, this issue is because of the hotpatch push of a critical bug fix in 3.x. This will not be fixed and the solution is to move to the 4.x release cycle.

thank you and sorry for any issues this may have caused

it means it is not a simple change to v4

Hey all, the v4 change did introduce a few other small changes but I would assume most users would not hit those small edge cases. v4 allowed for the slim image and some better coding ideas. So please come on over 😃

use 3.17.0 should be a temp workaround

Workaround

https://circleci.com/developer/orbs/orb/circleci/github-super-linter

version: '2.1'
orbs:
  github-super-linter: circleci/github-super-linter@1.0
workflows:
  lint-code:
    jobs:
      - github-super-linter/lint:
          context: Super-Linter-Options
          version: v3.17.0

The default is v3 - so I rolled back to a previous v3 version - pick one here: https://hub.docker.com/r/github/super-linter/tags?page=1&name=v3
