Weird redefined-variable-type warning for IntEnum about pylint HOT 3 OPEN

Thank you for opening the issue, it's still happening on main.

from pylint.

Another example using StrEnum:

import enum


class Foo(enum.StrEnum):
    ABC = enum.auto()
    DEF = enum.auto()


bar = Foo.ABC
bar = Foo.DEF

results in:

R0204: Redefinition of bar type from Foo.ABC to Foo.DEF (redefined-variable-type)

Looks like pylint assumes that the type is Foo.ABC instead of just Foo. Sometimes it will assume str instead of the StrEnum type. Annotations don't help here.

import enum


class Foo(enum.StrEnum):
    ABC = enum.auto()
    DEF = enum.auto()


def return_enum():
    return Foo("DEF")


bar = Foo.ABC
if True:
    bar = return_enum()

results in:

R0204: Redefinition of bar type from Foo.ABC to str (redefined-variable-type)

from pylint.

Thank you for reporting this, I am also running into this issue.
