tflint does not recognise removed blocks

[jamiekt]

Summary

We run super-linter (ghcr.io/super-linter/super-linter:v5) to lint our terraform code. We turn on tflint by setting env var

jobs:
    run-lint:
        env:
            VALIDATE_TERRAFORM_TFLINT: true

Unfortunately its failing right now:

╵

removed blocks were added in terraform 1.7 (https://www.hashicorp.com/blog/terraform-1-7-adds-test-mocking-and-config-driven-remove). It would be great if tflint supported linting of files that contain removed blocks.

In the meantime, is it possible to ignore this error? We've tried:

# tflint-ignore: unsupported_block_type

but doing so is not having the desired effect

Command

Unknown, its wrapped up in super-linter

Terraform Configuration

removed {
  from = snowflake_schema_grant.staging_ownership
  # The lifecycle block instructs Terraform not to destroy the underlying resource
  lifecycle {
    destroy = false
  }
}

TFLint Configuration

// https://github.com/terraform-linters/tflint/blob/master/docs/user-guide/config.md
config {
  module = false
  force = false
}

plugin "aws" {
  enabled = true
}

// disable pinned resource rule because we need to use master version of "github.com/org/tf-hf-rds"
rule "terraform_module_pinned_source" {
  enabled = false
}

Output

╷
│ Error: Unsupported block type

TFLint Version

v0.48.0.0 (I think, that's what I'm assuming from this line: https://github.com/super-linter/super-linter/blob/a8150b40c89574adb5f68bf9502b890a236a06b3/Dockerfile#L15)

Terraform Version

This error is probably not due to TFLint, since it only validates the bare minimum schema. Please consider the possibility that other tools are giving the error.
If you still think that TFLint is the cause, please tell us the minimum steps to reproduce it without using super-linter.
