This seems to be related with the following error:

The request analysis.setContextRoots failed with the following error:

It used to work some versions ago. The issue seems related to the environment variables used while running the linter in the IDE, that is not providing the full PATH which contains the flutter pub get.

Problem still persists. Also, I cannot downgrade custom_lint. When I do, I get these errors:

Failed to build custom_lint:custom_lint:
