Is it possible that nikola was installed in a virtualenv or something like that which doesn't have jinja2 installed?

ChillarAnand commented 2 years ago

Initially I thought the same but after quick verification, it doesn't seem to be the case.

@ChillarAnand Does the same thing occur when you run python -m nikola? Can you import jinja2 in the python REPL?

(Also, we recommend using virtual environments.)

As shown in the above screenshot, Jinja==2.1.1 got installed somehow. It is unsupported. Upgrading Jinja2 fixed the issue.
