Constant f-strings (those without substitutions) as doc strings used to work, since the compiler turns them into normal strings.
I can't find exactly where it was removed, but there was definitely discussion about it. See https://bugs.python.org/issue28739 for at least part of the discussion.
Ah, sorry for the misunderstanding. While the example I showed doesn't have any substitutions, I'm interested in the non-trivial (non-constant) case actually :-) Regards Antoine.

Hello,
Currently, a f-string is not recognized as a docstring:
class C: f"foo" C.__doc__
This means you need to use a (admittedly easy) workaround:
class C: __doc__ = f"foo" C.__doc__ 'foo'
Shouldn't the former be allowed for convenience?
Regards
Antoine.
