TypeError: 'NoneType' object is not subscriptable

This case seems to be unhandled when loading the version of pylint:

File "~/Library/Application Support/Sublime Text 3/Packages/Pylinter/pylinter.py", line 151, in read_settings
    if PYLINT_VERSION[0] != 0:
TypeError: 'NoneType' object is not subscriptable

I am receiving the same error in sublime text 3 on Mac Os X

hi everybody,
i'm using ST3 for a few days now and i like it. today i tried to install some new package via the built-in package manager, using the command Package Control: Install Package and i recieved the following output:

Traceback (most recent call last):

i installed ST3 running as root, and most of time i use it, i'm running as root. could that cause issues?

i remember when i used code before, an (open-source-)editor by visual studio. there i had some problems running as root. in the end i uninstalled it, because i discovered it was sending a huge amount of data while running something in the background every time i was writing code. my connection and my os began slowing down.
it seemed to me, that microsoft is using (or still testing on) a kind of encryption of personal data by storing the information in json-files. then, to decrypt it again, there are dozens and dozens of JavaScript-files needed, wich i found hidden inside a massive construct of directories and subdirectories and subsubdirectories ... , i'm talking about a few ten thousands of files, all created (and downloaded / recieved) by vs-code.

i really tried everything ... first of all, i disabled the telemetry-setting in the "usual" prereferences. but that didn't change anything. so i looked for a file called 'product.json', where i switched the telemetry-setting there to false, too. but i additionally had to switch another setting to false, called 'telemetry-crash-reporter'. but all that had no effect as well.
i even limited the permission to vs-code to access my network-interface by using chmod and chown. and first it seemed to work.
unfortunately that didn't work fine very long and the editor started to bug around and crashing all the time wich was very anoying as i lost important parts of script sometimes while i was working on it.
so i decided to uninstall it ... but even that wasn't as easy as i thought.
and plus, i haven't installed it by apt-get, so i had to remove it by the (un-)installer from vs-code itself.
but in the end i could remove it, but i think, i'll never use a program from microsoft again, even, when it is called open-source . . .
