Bug#1118103: python3-apt: Missing type annotations in apt_pkg

Package: python3-apt
Version: 3.0.0
Severity: normal
X-Debbugs-Cc: [email protected]

Dear Maintainer,

While looking at some old mia-team code, I found that type annotations for
the following functions were missing.

apt_pkg.read_config_file_isc
  (Module has no attribute "read_config_file_isc")
apt_pkg.parse_commandline
  (Module has no attribute "parse_commandline")
Configuration.exists
  ("Configuration" has no attribute "exists")
Configuration.subtree
  ("Configuration" has no attribute "subtree")
Configuration.__setitem__
  (Unsupported target for indexed assignment ("Configuration"))

If python3-apt's type annotations could be expanded to include these,
that would be much appreciated. (And yes, I suspect that moving away
from some of these functions would also be worthwhile, but that's a
different yak to shave.)

thanks
Stuart
