[New-bugs-announce] [issue34775] pathlib.PurePath division raises TypeError instead of returning NotImplemented

[Roger Aiudi]

New submission from Roger Aiudi <aiudirog at gmail.com>:

PurePath.__truediv__ and __rtruediv__ raise a TypeError when passed something which is not an instance of string or PurePath. This prevents creating any sort of compatible class that doesn't inherit from the previously mentioned types.
