The following tagged PHP code is not highlighted:
<syntaxhighlight lang="php" line>

$v = "string_test"; // sample initialization
?>
html text
<?
echo $v; // end of php code
?>
</syntaxhighlight>Debug logs show that pygmentize is failing to load:

ModuleNotFoundError: No module named 'importlib.metadata'What should have happened instead?:
Code should be colorized. Works correctly with MediaWiki 1.43.3 or with external pygmentize.
Software version (on Special:Version page; skip for WMF-hosted wikis like Wikipedia):
MediaWiki 1.43.5
