Pylama related topics

Pylama results depend on plugin order

It was discovered that pylama plugin order may change lint results. Issue is under investigated and will be reported to pylama project as soon as I get time to create test scenarios.

Tests show that the most trusted configuration is: mccabe,pyflakes,pylint,pep8,pep257

Pyflakes plugin may change pylama result

New issue was created in pylama project. Pylama results are not constant when pyflakes plugin is enabled. Issue is visible with Python 3.5.1
