This PR adds
# type: ignore
comments to suppress twomypy
warnings.Confirmed that this suppresses these warnings by running the following.
mypy \ --exclude='python-package/compile/|python-package/build' \ --ignore-missing-imports \ python-package/
Notes for Reviewers
I think it's appropriate to use
# type: ignore
in these two cases since they are somewhat non-standard and the types of cases that type-checkers can struggle with. One is a use ofexec
and one is an import preceded by two other try-catched imports.
