enabling flake8 kills my tabstops

[bladernr]

Ok, I had this in vimrc:
set tabstop=4
set shiftwidth=4
set expandtab
set softtabstop=4
set autoindent
set smarttab

and I added the following to enable Flake8:
execute pathogen#infect()
filetype plugin indent on

The second line "filetype plugin indent on" is required to make Flake8 work. Without that line, I get this when trying to run Flake8:

E117: Unknown function: Flake8

So I have to add that filetype line in order to use Flake8 on python code.

However, when I turn that on, my tabstops no longer work and I get THIS whenever I try using the Tab key during an edit:

Error detected while processing function 34_SetVals:
line 12:
E121: Undefined variable: g:pydiction_location

So I am either doing something wrong, or there's a bug somewhere... I followed the instructions in the README file...

I'm seeing this as well. My default softtabstop=2 and shiftwidth=2, but before instally vim-flake8, python files the default python ftplugin to change both settings to =4. After flake8, it seems that the default ftplugin isn't loaded.

Actually, I'm hitting: vim/vim#326
