sorry - it's the use of italic in eg '# apt-mark auto rsyslog' https://people.debian.org/~holgerw/release-notes_sphinx/www.debian.org/releases/trixie/release-notes/issues.en.html#changes-to-system-logging i found https://stackoverflow.com/questions/16397794/how-to-show-terminal-shell-code-snippets-in-sphinx which i think says that 'code-block:: console' might be better than 'code-block:: shell', but i may be misunderstanding that page
