How To Fix cmark-bkrs: command not found in Ubuntu / Debian / Kali Linux / Raspbian

In Ubuntu cmark-bkrs is provided by python3-commonmark-bkrs package.

python3-commonmark-bkrs is:

Pure Python port of `jgm’’s CommonMark, a Markdown parser and renderer for the CommonMark (http://commonmark.org) specification, using only native modules.

This provides the CommonMark-py Python package as developed by Bibek Kafle and Roland Shoemaker (BKRS). After release 0.5.4, their project moved to `Read the Docs’ (http://readthedocs.org) and major changes broke compatibility. However some Python packages may still depend on their last implementation, hence this Debian package which is meant to smooth the transition.

This package installs the library for Python 3.

To fix this problem, we can install more using the command below.

sudo apt-get -y install python3-commonmark-bkrs

This command might take some time to finish depending on your machine internet connection.

You can also use apt command to install python3-commonmark-bkrs.
