Thank you for reply. The warning I am seeing is

208/279 libvirt:syntax-check / flake8 FAIL 1.53s (exit status 2) --- command --- 13:12:22 /usr/bin/make -C /home/sjt/src/c/libvirt/build/build-aux sc_flake8 --- stdout --- make: Entering directory '/home/sjt/src/c/libvirt/build/build-aux' /home/sjt/src/c/libvirt/tools/virt-qemu-qmp-proxy:338:5: F841 local variable '_' is assigned to but never used _ = QMPProxy(conn, dom, sock, args.verbose)

the flake8 version is pretty old (3.5.0 (mccabe: 0.6.1, pycodestyle: 2.3.1, pyflakes: 1.6.0) CPython 3.6.9 on Linux)
