Are you sure this isn't tuple[str, ...]? In other words, is this really always a one-tuple? (A few more times below.)

You're right, I also glanced over that...
(same for all definitions below)

The one tuple for macros is correct, but the others were a mistake: 2bb4ed4

obj_deps: NotRequired[dict[str, list[str] | tuple[str]]]
macros: NotRequired[list[tuple[str, str] | tuple[str]]]
include_dirs: NotRequired[list[str]]
cflags: NotRequired[list[str]]

Normally I'd prefer defining such types close to where their implementation stands (so with the appropriate Command or Distribution) but in this case it'd end up in distutils and/or setuptools/_distutils so I guess in setuptools.__init__.py is fine.

I do have a concern using a type-only TypedDict with required members as a parameter: It makes it annoying to use a non-literal dict. Maybe that's ok in setuptools due to the nature of it looking like a config file, it shouldn't be much more complex than my example below?

It's possible, but requires a private type-only import, which isn't great:

from typing import cast, TYPE_CHECKING
if TYPE_CHECKING:
    from setuptools import _BuildInfo

libs = [
    ("lib1", {"sources": []}),
    ("lib2", {"sources": []}),
]
setup(libraries=libs)  # Type error in both mypy and pyright due to missing "sources"
# Ok, but must quote type to avoid runtime error
setup(libraries=cast(list[tuple[str, "_BuildInfo"]], libs))
# Ok
setup(libraries=[("literal", {"sources": []})])
# Ok
libs_annotated: list[tuple[str, "_BuildInfo"]] = [ # Must quote type or use from __future__ import annotations
    ("lib1", {"sources": []}),
    ("lib2", {"sources": []}),
]
setup(libraries=libs_annotated)

Yeah, perhaps it's not ideal but I'm not seeing a great alternative, obviously passing things in-line solves this problem, or just:

libs: "list[tuple[str, _BuildInfo]]" = [
    ("lib1", {"sources": []}),
    ("lib2", {"sources": []}),
]
setup(libraries=libs)

Which would work without quotes given deferred annotations.

At the same time, the kind of people to type-check their setup.py are probably the same going all out on typing (looking at myself here ^^)
