We are using mkdocs-markdownextradata-plugin in one of our documentation sites along with mkdocs. The requirements.txt of our site is as follows.

mkdocs>=1.1
mkdocs-material>=4.2.0
markdown-include>=0.5.1
pymdown-extensions>=5.0.0
mkdocs-redirects==1.0.0
mkdocs-markdownextradata-plugin==0.1.1
markdown-include==0.5.1

When running mkdocs serve with Python3 to run the site locally, we are faced with the following error.
