Task Summary
amber/requirements.txt lists two PyPI backport packages that are obsolete for the Python versions this repo supports (3.10–3.13):
typing==3.7.4.3 (line 31) — backport of the typing stdlib module for Python <3.5. Has been part of the standard library since Python 3.5.dataclasses==0.6 (line 36) — backport of the dataclasses stdlib module for Python <3.7. Has been part of the standard library since Python 3.7.
Installing these on supported versions is at best wasted install time. At worst, the PyPI typing package can shadow the stdlib version and cause subtle import/typing bugs because it's pinned to a 3.7-era surface.
Side effect: on Python 3.13, typing==3.7.4.3 has no prebuilt wheel and is built from source on every CI run (visible in #4519's investigation).
