It appears to me that the target for that symlink (../../../../../sphinx_rtd_theme/static/css/theme.css) is not existing and therefore we get an empty file. I did some testing with debuild, and changed debian/rules (line 4) like - dh $@ --with sphinxdoc + dh $@ and that way I get a valid html document with the new theme working !!! (That is something of a revert of https://salsa.debian.org/dbnpolicy/policy/-/commit/528ad4d79a76690eeb0504fd6c094a88ddb9739d ) Please note that I did not check for any other differences in the package created that way compared to the latest version in the archive (debdiff). An sbuild run was successful that way as well. Seems there is something wrong in the debhelper / dh_sphinxdoc world (or at least an incompatibility with read-the-doc themes) ... But that's out of my skills Applying above change could at least be a temporary way to get the policy back in shape on the website ...
