Pylint does not follow python import order : Builtin modules are imported before custom modules

[electriquo]

Bug description

when a project holds a module name that shadows builtin module name, pylist fails on no-member, when clearly this is not the case.

reproduction

given 2 files:

1. os.py an empty file
2. test.py with the following content

   """test.py"""
   
   import os
   print(os.environ['SHELL'])

and now pylint fails on no-member as follows

$ pylint **/*.py
************* Module test
test.py:4:6: E1101: Module 'os' has no 'environ' member (no-member)

------------------------------------------------------------------
Your code has been rated at 0.00/10 (previous run: 0.00/10, +0.00)

but the code is correct

$ python test.py
/usr/local/bin/bash

Configuration

No response

Command used

pylint **/*.py

Pylint output

************* Module test
test.py:4:6: E1101: Module 'os' has no 'environ' member (no-member)

------------------------------------------------------------------
Your code has been rated at 0.00/10 (previous run: 0.00/10, +0.00)

Expected behavior

pylint should be aware of the import tree, and report such issue if that is indeed the case.

in the reproduction snippet above, test.py imports the os builtin module (and not os.py) that has the environ().

In my case I haven't been able to reproduce the no-member. I see an issue for Python in this situation also:

Create os.py in the current directory and run python test.py

(venv39) programming python test.py

I can reproduce this, I wonder if the order is interpreter dependent. If that's the case we need to handle this dynamically.

[ssbarnea]

I encountered this issue multiple times over the last month and that is because my main python is 3.11 and pylint is not yet compatible with 3.11.

So, I forced us to use oldest supported python and lock it during linting. I hope to see py311 support added soon in astroid.
