Please see [1] for Sphinx changelog, which may give a hint of what changes in
Sphinx caused this error.

Also see [2] for the list of deprecated/removed APIs and possible alternatives
to them.

Sphinx 2.4 is going to be uploaded to unstable in a couple of weeks. When that
happens, the severity of this bug will be bumped to serious.

About the archive rebuild: The rebuild was done on EC2 VM instances from
Amazon Web Services, using a clean, minimal and up-to-date chroot. Every
failed build was retried once to eliminate random failures.
