2 deprecated warnings are raised while running unit-test with Jinja2 3.0.0:

trac/util/presentation.py:133: DeprecationWarning: 'jinja2.Markup' is deprecated and will be removed in Jinja 3.1. Import 'markupsafe.Markup' instead.
  rv = Markup(rv)
/venv/py39/lib/python3.9/site-packages/jinja2/environment.py:119: DeprecationWarning: The 'with' extension is deprecated and will be removed in Jinja 3.1. This is built in now.
  result[extension.identifier] = extension(environment)

Also, 2 failures.

The AssertionError: Tried to resolve a name ... has been filed at https://github.com/pallets/jinja/issues/1427 and a workaround has been posted in the page.

Proposed changes in jomae.git@t13404, tested with Jinja 3.0.0 and 2.11.3.

comment:3 by Ryan J Ollos, 4 years ago

Changes look good. Do you think we should create another release soon since this upgrading Jinja2 will cause breakage in production?

Status: assignedclosed

Thanks for the reviewing. Committed in [17543].

Hmm, I don't think new release is not necessary for this issue. We don't recommend to use 1.5.x releasees in production because it is for development. It is easy to downgrade to Jinja2<3 for 1.5.x users.

I'm trying to install trac with pip and i've got this message having Jinja2….

comment:6 by Jun Omae, 3 years ago

Try to downgrade Jinja2 using pip install 'Jinja2<3'. See comment:4.

I suggested 3.0.0 (I saw Jinja3.0.0 not Jinja2 3.0.0 :D)

comment:8 by msiz, 3 years ago

I encountered this issue. Regarding with this issue, there is the following warning message in Markupsafe 2.0.1 source code.

'soft_unicode' has been renamed to 'soft_str'. The old name will be removed in MarkupSafe 2.1.

I applied the following patch to work around.

(_venv) PS C:\Users\...\trac> git diff

I use this patch on trac-1.5.3 tagged release in Windows10, Python 3.9.1 environment. I would appreciate if any Trac developer take a look at this patch.
