PhpStorm Unknown exception encountered with possibly-broken third-party extension hg4ideapromptextension - python-2.7

Question

I would like to know how to disable the third-party extension hg4ideapromptextension
I am using Xubuntu 17.10, Mercurial Distributed SCM (version 4.3.1), PhpStorm 10.0.4 and Python 2.7.14.
FYI, this was working fine until upgrade to Xubuntu 17.10
Here is the error I get
pushing to https://<user>#<my_redmine_server>
** Unknown exception encountered with possibly-broken third-party extension hg4ideapromptextension
** which supports versions unknown of Mercurial.
** Please disable hg4ideapromptextension and try your action again.
** If that fixes the bug please report it to the extension author.
** Python 2.7.14 (default, Sep 23 2017, 22:06:14) [GCC 7.2.0]
** Mercurial Distributed SCM (version 4.3.1)

I have tried cloning the hg-prompt python script and adding the path to my ~/.hgrc as per https://bitbucket.org/sjl/hg-prompt/src
I still get the error:
$ hg prompt "test"
hg: unknown command 'prompt'
As an aside - I notice now that PhpStorm isn't prompting me for my hg repo password on push..
I also have tried disabling the extension in .hgrc
[extensions]
hgview = !
prompt = !
hg4ideapromptextension = !
still no luck

This was the response from Eugene Morozov (IntelliJ)
This is a bug that has already been fixed, but unfortunately the fix
won't be backported to v10.
