Issue created by <https://github.com/idan-at|idan-at>
*Describe the bug*  
When enabling those two backends together:

• `pants.backend.python`
• `pants.backend.python.lint.pylint`

And importing `pytest` in one of the test files (for example for using `@pytest.mark.skip`), `pylint` complains with the error above.

*Pants version*  
2.15.0

*OS*
