SRU: autopkgtest failure and FTBFS with Python 3.10.6

[Graham Inggs]

[Impact]

 * Users of the mypy type checking utility may see incorrect warnings.

 * Users wanting to rebuild the package locally will be unable to do so.

 * Prevents migration of the Python 3.10.6 updates to jammy (LP: #1982108). Allowing this autopkgtest to regress will prevent us from detecting more serious regressions in future.

[Test Plan]

 * Verify that the package does not FTBFS when built with Python 3.10.6.

 * Verify that the autopkgtests are successful when tested with Python 3.10.6.

[Where problems could occur]

 * The mypy type checking utility may output other incorrect warnings.

Hello Graham, or anyone else affected,

Accepted mypy into jammy-proposed. The package will build now and be available at https://launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/mypy/0.942-1ubuntu1 in a few hours, and then in the -proposed repository.

Please help us by testing this new package. See https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Testing/EnableProposed for documentation on how to enable and use -proposed. Your feedback will aid us getting this update out to other Ubuntu users.

If this package fixes the bug for you, please add a comment to this bug, mentioning the version of the package you tested, what testing has been performed on the package and change the tag from verification-needed-jammy to verification-done-jammy. If it does not fix the bug for you, please add a comment stating that, and change the tag to verification-failed-jammy. In either case, without details of your testing we will not be able to proceed.

Further information regarding the verification process can be found at https://wiki.ubuntu.com/QATeam/PerformingSRUVerification . Thank you in advance for helping!

N.B. The updated package will be released to -updates after the bug(s) fixed by this package have been verified and the package has been in -proposed for a minimum of 7 days.

mypy/0.942-1ubuntu1 built successfully in jammy-proposed and autopkgtests were successful in jammy-release, and in jammy-proposed against the python 3.10.6 updates

[Launchpad Janitor (janitor)]

This bug was fixed in the package mypy - 0.942-1ubuntu1

---------------
mypy (0.942-1ubuntu1) jammy; urgency=medium

  * Backport error filtering and walrus test fixes from 0.971-1 in
    kinetic to avoid test failure and FTBFS with Python 3.10.6
