I’m using the latest ansible-test. Here is the code:

def cmd\_options\_params\_definition() → dict[str, Any]:  
…

here are the errors:

Running sanity test “import” on Python 3.6  
ERROR: plugins/module\_utils/ha\_cluster\_lsr/pcs\_api\_v2\_utils.py:93:0: traceback: TypeError: ‘type’ object is not subscriptable  
…  
Running sanity test “import” on Python 3.7

Running sanity test “import” on Python 3.8  
ERROR: plugins/module\_utils/ha\_cluster\_lsr/pcs\_api\_v2\_utils.py:93:0: traceback: TypeError: ‘type’ object is not subscriptable

I suppose I could create a tests/config.yml with

modules:  
python\_requires: “\>= 3.9”

but that seems like a pretty big hammer . . . hoping there is another way to handle this.
