Bug Report

The stubgen command generates an interface with invalid syntax for a data class that inherits from another class located in a different file.

To Reproduce

1. Create a fresh virtual environment with Python >=3.7 and install mypy==0.941:

python3.9 -m venv venv
source venv/bin/activate
pip install -U pip
pip install mypy==0.941

2. Create a file named a.py with the following content:

class A:
    pass

3. Create a file named b.py in the same directory with the following content:

from dataclasses import dataclass
from a import A


@dataclass
class B(A):
    c: str

4. Run stubgen b.py -o .
5. Run python b.pyi

The generated b.pyi file has the following content:

from a import A

class B(A):
    c: str
    def __init__(self, *, c, **) -> None: ...

Notes:

• The stub generation works correctly if we don't annotate the class with @dataclass.
• The stub generation works correctly if the superclass A is in the same file.
• The stub generation works correctly if B doesn't inherit from A.

Expected Behavior

The generated b.pyi file has valid Python syntax and the python command executes without errors.

Actual Behavior

The generated b.pyi file doesn't have valid Python syntax and the command python b.pyi produces the following error:

  File "/path/to/sandbox/b.pyi", line 5
    def __init__(self, *, c, **) -> None: ...
                               ^
SyntaxError: invalid syntax
