`manifest-required-author` appears to be ignored/not loaded after v8.0.5

Describe the bug

v8.0.5 and onwards no longer seem to pay any attention to manifest-required-author configuration.

v8.0.4 with manifest_required_authors=Glo Networks in .pylintrc

************* Module crm_stage_duration.__manifest__
crm_stage_duration/__manifest__.py:4: [C8101(manifest-required-author), ] One of the following authors must be present in manifest: 'Glo Networks'

Check for Odoo modules using pylint......................................Failed
- hook id: pylint_odoo
- exit code: 16

Same repo, no other changes, but a bump to v8.0.6 - v8.0.9 yields the following:

crm_stage_duration/__manifest__.py:1: [W0104(pointless-statement), ] Statement seems to have no effect

Bumping to v8.0.10 yields the following:

crm_stage_duration/__manifest__.py:4: [C8101(manifest-required-author), ] One of the following authors must be present in manifest: 'Odoo Community Association (OCA)'

If I manually add --manifest-required-author="Glo Networks" to our pre-commit-config.yaml it seems to take, so I'm assuming it's failing to read the file being passed in through --rcfile, but I'm at a complete loss as to why.

I'm happy to do more of the investigation, but I'll be honest I'll need a pointer in the right direction as I'm not familiar enough with the innards of pylint at this point :(

Statement seems to have no effect

It is related to not using the plugin pylint_odoo correctly

Notice our readme where it explains the parameter --load-plugins=pylint_odoo also you can add to your configuration file

v8.0.4 with manifest_required_authors=Glo Networks in .pylintrc

Checking a diff between both versions mentioned related to manifest matter:

git diff v8.0.6..v8.0.9 src | grep manifest.required.author

The output is the following:

-            "manifest_required_authors",
+            "manifest-required-authors",

I think you are affected because the following change:

• #426

You can double-confirm all the parameters for this new version running the following command:

• pylint --load-plugins=pylint_odoo --long-help
  • 

Notice this was not the unique parameter changed

Apologies for the noise, I’m not sure how I missed that. Thank you <3
