Bug report

Bug description:

fromfunctoolsimportupdate_wrapperdefmy_type(*args):passt=update_wrapper(my_type,type)

This works on Python ≤ 3.11, and I think this is expected because the docs forupdate_wrapper claim that it may be used with callables other than functions.

However, with 3.12, I get

TypeError: __type_params__ must be set to a tuple

(Similarly forfunctools.wraps.)

The problem is that update_wrapper includes__type_params__ by default (which is undocumented, seerelated issue) andtype.__type_params__ is a descriptor.

CPython versions tested on:

3.12

Operating systems tested on:

Linux
