Runtime error with Python-Markdown 3.4.1

[ulm]

Environment

Python Version:
3.10

Nikola Version:
8.2.2

Operating System:
Gentoo Linux

Description:

Forwarding Gentoo Linux bug https://bugs.gentoo.org/860087.

With Nikola 8.2.2 and Python-Markdown version 3.4.1, I get the following error at runtime (when running for the site at https://github.com/gentoo-ev/www.gentoo-ev.org/tree/master/src):

$ nikola build -a

Downgrading Python-Markdown to version 3.3.7 works around the problem, but of course that's not a permanent solution.

Looks like this is a duplicate of #3635. Sorry for the noise.
