Enable Ruff rule blind-except

[clockback]

Note that two inline suppressions are used. I expect, provided that my PR is merged in, that these suppressions will become superfluous in a later version of Ruff.

Pull Request Checklist

• Ensured tests pass and (if applicable) updated functional test output
• Conformed to code style guidelines by running appropriate linting tools
• Added tests for changed code
• Updated documentation for changed code

Hey Elliot. Thanks for working on this. Given that your aforementioned Ruff PR was merged, is this pull request still relevant?

It oughtn't make any difference if we merge now. If we merge after the next Ruff release, then I expect we'll remove the two inline warning suppressions before merging.

[clockback]

I've removed the warning suppressions and bumped Ruff to v0.12.7. The tests are failing, and they seem to be failing on the main branch too.

[justinmayer]

Odd. Tests pass on my local workstation, both on main and on this branch as well.

[justinmayer]

@getpelican/reviewers: Could you possibly help diagnose why a bunch of tests are failing on main in CI but pass on my local workstation? Any investigative assistance you can offer would be very helpful! 😊

[boxydog]

I have nothing useful yet, but I can say

• I replicated your result of failing on github (link)
• When I run invoke tests on my machine, some tests fail (but not so many). I'm still investigating why. I have to say, running invoke or invoke help doesn't list the tasks, which is unhelpful

I'll get back to this later.

[justinmayer]

@boxydog: Thank you for your investigative efforts. Much appreciated!

You should be able to list the available Invoke tasks via: invoke --list (or invoke -l)

It looks like main doesn't pass either.

I'm betting some dependency has changed. The dependencies in pyproject.toml allow a lot of different combinations.

I'm experimenting with combinations of dependencies.

Pinning docutils to 0.20.1 allows all tests to pass on main (#3506), while docutils 0.22 fails.

That same pin allows this branch to pass tests (link).

[boxydog]

Filed #3507, which says that docutils >= 0.22 fails.

Many thanks to @clockback for the enhancement and to @boxydog for tracking down the source of the test failures 👍
