Description
While testing pylint-dev/pylint#9967, I noticed that the qualified package names are incorrect when linted files are outside of the source-roots specified. This PR changes the priority of the search path which then correctly picks up the right qualified module name. It makes sense to give higher priority to the additional search paths over
sys.path
. This is in line with priority order of expand_modules function in pylint. Hopefully the maintainers agree that this inconsistency needs to be fixed.Refs pylint-dev/pylint#9955
