Error on cells using progress bar (tqdm)

[ThibaultFy]

Hello, I got the error

ERROR: Content block expected for the "raw" directive; none found.

on my cells using a progress bar (tqdm for instance). It appears when upgrading to Sphinx 7.2.6.

I'm also seeing this in my logs: https://readthedocs.org/api/v2/build/23454115.txt

This has been reported at jupyter/nbconvert#2092.

This should probably be fixed in nbconvert, but I'm not sure if it should also be worked-around in nbsphinx.

Any suggestions?

Any volunteers?

In the meantime, pinning nbconvert < 7.14 should avoid the problem.

[ThibaultFy]

Thanks for pointing the nbconvert issue.

I'll try with nbconvert 7.13.
For now, I just stopped running my notebooks (nbsphinx_execute = "never") waiting for one of these issue to be fixed 🤞 .

Pinning nbconvert to 7.13 fixed it. Should I close this issue ?

[mgeier]

I think this should stay open until there is a real fix. Pinning nbconvert isn't really a long-term solution.

[mgeier]

I suggested a fix to nbconvert: jupyter/nbconvert#2142

[mgeier]

nbconvert v7.16.4 has just been released and it should fix this problem.

@ThibaultFy @arjunsavel Can you please check if that works for you?
