Change location for finding stubs from having a fixed location as
shared/typehints/python*
to having the stubs being directly in the module (package_data
instead ofdata_files
). Having this will tight types annotations to code rather than to repository, which IMO is good, that also remove the need to have a tree outside of/usr/lib/python*/site-packages
, with version done by hand.The type checker would still have to look in
PYTHONPATH
to find a suitable type definition but, as the loaded module what found in it, we don't need to check elsewhere.
