TypeError: function() argument 1 must be code, not str

[Fenkiou]

Expected Behavior

Subclass a class that is marked as deprecated shouldn't raises an error.

Actual Behavior

Subclassing a class that's deprecated raises a TypeError

>>> from deprecated import deprecated
>>> @deprecated
... class MyClass: pass
...
>>> class MyOtherClass(MyClass): pass
...
Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "<stdin>", line 1, in <module>
TypeError: function() argument 1 must be code, not str
>>>

Environment

• Python version: 3.6

Solution: use a class decorator when applied to a class ?
