New --quick crash: "assert override is not None"

[gvanrossum]

I'm seeing new crashes in quick mode in production. Note that these start with two legitimate mypy errors. On stderr:

dropbox/fastwalk_bridge.py:36: error: INTERNAL ERROR -- please report a bug at https://github.com/python/mypy/issues version: 0.510-dev-54f1df90e40db1f0f57814a193134fa9749a2527
dropbox/fastwalk_bridge.py:36: note: use --pdb to drop into pdb

On stdout:

build_number/__init__.py:31: error: Module 'build_number._frozen_version' has no attribute 'DROPBOXEXT_VERSION'
build_number/__init__.py:102: error: "DesktopClientBuildNumber" has no attribute "name"

[ilevkivskyi]

This one seems easy, could you please check whether #3356 fixes this?

[gvanrossum]

This crash is still occurring, so #3356 did not fix it.

[ilevkivskyi]

This crash is still occurring, so #3356 did not fix it.

This looks more mysterious now. Are there any hints about how to reproduce this?

[gvanrossum]

Sadly it's very shy.

[gvanrossum]

This is recurring again. I really need to figure out what's going on.

[ilevkivskyi]

If this is a big problem, I have a fix that I am not 100% happy with, but it will certainly work. The idea is very simple: replace the assert in --quick mode with a dummy Instance that will trigger errors down the way citing <stale cache: reconsider running mypy without --quick> (like we did for other situations in fixup.py).

[ilevkivskyi]

Actually, few more tracebacks will be very helpful to find a less hacky solution. Or are they all identical?
