Undocumented breaking change affecting autopep8

[paugier]

I guess pycodestyle.missing_whitespace_around_operator was removed in pycodestyle 2.11.0 (2023-07-29).

It breaks autopep8 (hhatto/autopep8#689). Currently, the most recent versions of pycodestyle and autopep8 are incompatible.

How this should be fixed? Which project (pycodestyle or autopep8) has to be adapted and how?

Autopep8 needs to adjust

[paugier]

Should it be enough to just call missing_whitespace instead of missing_whitespace_around_operator in autopep8?

Shouldn't such breaking change be mentioned in https://pycodestyle.pycqa.org/en/latest/developer.html#changes?

there is no public API of pycodestyle beyond the StyleGuide. calling the internal functions is at your own risk
