[ESLint]: dependency-group rule doesn't work correctly #65440

Open

Description

During the review of #65289, @louwie17 noticed that the ESLint didn't catch some wrong imports order.

I'm able to replicate in other packages too.

/**
 * WordPress dependencies
 */
import { SlotFillProvider } from '@wordpress/components';
import {
	UnsavedChangesWarning,
	privateApis as editorPrivateApis,
} from '@wordpress/editor';
import { store as noticesStore } from '@wordpress/notices';
import { useDispatch } from '@wordpress/data';
import { __, sprintf } from '@wordpress/i18n';
import { PluginArea } from '@wordpress/plugins';

/**
 * Internal dependencies
 */
import Layout from '../layout';
import { unlock } from '../../lock-unlock';
import { useCommonCommands } from '../../hooks/commands/use-common-commands';
import { useEditModeCommands } from '../../hooks/commands/use-edit-mode-commands';
import useInitEditedEntityFromURL from '../sync-state-with-url/use-init-edited-entity-from-url';
import useLayoutAreas from '../layout/router';
import useSetCommandContext from '../../hooks/commands/use-set-command-context';
import { privateApis as routerPrivateApis } from '@wordpress/router';

With this list of imports, ESlint should catch the error (privateApis should be above). You can replicate it moving the privateApis import in this file.

I checked the unit test of the dependency-group rule updating the valid case to this one:

	valid: [
		{
			code: `
/**
 * External dependencies
 */
import { camelCase } from 'change-case';
import clsx from 'clsx';;

/**
 * WordPress dependencies
 */
import { Component } from '@wordpress/element';

/**
 * Internal dependencies
 */
import edit from './edit';
import { privateApis as routerPrivateApis } from '@wordpress/router';
`,
		},
		{
			code: `
/**
 * External dependencies
 */
const { camelCase } = require( 'change-case' );
const clsx = require( 'clsx' );

/**
 * WordPress dependencies
 */
const { Component } = require( '@wordpress/element' );

/**
 * Internal dependencies
 */
const edit = require( './edit' );`,
		},
	],

The unit test doesn't fail.

It looks like that the rule doesn't work correctly.
