Hi,
sagemath fails to build with Sphinx 7.1 and docutils 0.20, both of which
are currently available in experimental.

The full build log is available from:
http://qa-logs.debian.net/2023/07/30/exp/sagemath_9.5-6_unstable_sphinx-exp.log
Please see [1] for Sphinx changelog and [2] for Docutils changelog.
Also see [3] for the list of deprecated/removed APIs in Sphinx and possible
alternatives to them.
Some notable changes in Sphinx 6 and Sphinx 7:
- Sphinx no longer includes jquery.js and underscore.js by default.
Please use python3-sphinxcontrib.jquery package if you are using a custom
template and it still needs jquery.
- The setup.py build_sphinx command was removed. Please instead call
sphinx-build or "python3 -m sphinx" directly.
- For packages using the extlinks extension, the caption should contain
exactly one "%s" placeholder (if caption is not None).
In case you have questions, please Cc [email protected] on reply.
