Crash Report

Running mypy on pandera with pandas-stubs installed results in a crash.

To Reproduce

I'll try to narrow this down later, but now a repro script:

cd $(mktemp -d)
git clone https://github.com/pandera-dev/pandera
cd pandera
git checkout 33fe68b7d0c7c3a760469b9898acf286334fe34f  # Head as of now
python -m venv .venv
. ./.venv/bin/activate
pip install . 'mypy==1.14.1' 'pandas-stubs==2.2.3.241126'
hash -r
mypy pandera --show-traceback

Your Environment

• Mypy version used: 1.14.1 and current master
• Mypy command-line flags: n/a
• Mypy configuration options from mypy.ini (and other config files): as specified in pandera's setup.cfg
• Python version used: 3.12 and 3.13 tested
• Operating system and version: Ubuntu 22.04.5 LTS (Linux pc 5.15.0-130-generic #140-Ubuntu SMP Wed Dec 18 17:59:53 UTC 2024 x86_64 x86_64 x86_64 GNU/Linux)

I had a hacky fix for it, but regressed type checking in some normal cases. If you see a better fix that would be cool!
