ImportError: cannot import name 'soft_unicode' from 'markupsafe'

I'm seeing the following in Debian testing:

I'm not sure that this is a specific xandikos error, but I vaguely think I remember you are also the Debian maintainer? Please close if this is nothing to do with xandikos...

[mlawren]

Looks like this is something kicked off by the markupsafe author (see pallets/markupsafe#282) and the Debian jinja maintainer doesn't seem to have caught it.

Sorry for the noise.

No worries :-)
