[northwestwitch]

You know what I did to cause the error? I’ve removed Weasyprint and Flask_weasyprint from requirements.txt.

[northwestwitch]

It is a freeze and that’s why it was complaining for deprecated stuff

Looks like there is a new defusedxml 0.8 on its way, but not quite out yet?

Check #3136. If you remove Flask-WeasyPrint you need to install defusedxml. But you don’t need to freeze it!
