Description
New version of Sphinx and docutils make the builds fail.
Sphinx>=9.0.0is requiring the definition ofdefault_roleinconfig.pyand thedocutils>=22.0.0generate different than expected man pages from existing*.rstfiles causing the tests of documentation to fail.Problem happens for Python >= 3.11 so updating the man pages would in turn break the builds/tests for Python 3.9 and 3.10 that are currently passing.
My proposition is to pin Sphinx package version to one that works with all labgrid-supported Python versions. Doing that also (indirectly) pins version of
docutilspackage to one that doesn't alter generation of man pages.The solution is temporary until we're able to drop support for python 3.9 and 3.10.
