TypeError: context.getScope is not a function (ESLint 9 compatibility issues)

[robinloeffel]

When using some of the plugins' rules directly, without going via one of the provided flat configs that wrap around @eslint/compat, you will sooner or later run into the following error:

Oops! Something went wrong! :(

ESLint: 9.17.0

Please update the plugin according to ESLint's guide.

Ran into this as well trying to make the plugin work in a flat config. Different stack trace, same error:
