ImportError: cannot import name 'missing_whitespace_around_operator' from 'pycodestyle' (/usr/lib/python3/dist-packages/pycodestyle.py). Did you mean: 'whitespace_around_operator'?

Hi,

Running `flake8` `5.0.4-4` included with Noble, I'm getting the following errors:

Commenting that out in `/usr/lib/python3/dist-packages/flake8/plugins/pycodestyle.py`, I get others.

It looks like this is fixed upstream in https://github.com/PyCQA/flake8/commit/9786562feb573d30c73f18e1a0a6685c8584e9b5

Can we please include this?
