Actual behavior

ruby-lint is a mess with Rails.

I see ruby-lint is old and unmanteined. Is it still in use by the community? We really need it?

I've never heard of anyone using ruby-lint. The de facto Ruby linter is rubocop.

Closing for issue cleanup. Apologies if this is still an issue. We are working to improve the core extension experience.

Any chance we could open this and use this thread as a discussion about dropping ruby-lint from the recommended available Linter Hooks?

[wingrunr21]

Nope because I'm already planning on dropping support: #317 (comment)
