Description Tomáš Hrnčiar 2024-12-02 10:20:48 UTC
offlineimap fails to build with sphinx 8.x in Fedora 42 (currently Rawhide).

The issue detected:
```
ERROR: Invalid value `None` in intersphinx_mapping['http://docs.python.org/']. Expected a two-element tuple or list.

Configuration error:
Invalid `intersphinx_mapping` configuration (1 error).
make[1]: Leaving directory '/builddir/build/BUILD/offlineimap-8.0.0-build/offlineimap3-8.0.0/docs'
make[1]: *** [Makefile:37: api] Error 2
make: *** [Makefile:46: docs] Error 2
```

The intersphinx_mapping error can be easily fixed by adjusting conf.py.
You can take an inspiration from this PR: https://github.com/jupyterlab/jupyterlab/pull/14423

Please work with upstream on this issue, I plan to ship sphinx 8 in two weeks.


For the logs from testing build attempts, see:
https://copr.fedorainfracloud.org/coprs/thrnciar/python-sphinx/package/offlineimap/

You can test you package in mock running:

$ mock -r fedora-rawhide-x86_64
--addrepo=https://download.copr.fedorainfracloud.org/results/thrnciar/python-sphinx/fedora-rawhide-x86_64/ --no-clean your.src.rpm
$ mock -r fedora-rawhide-x86_64
--addrepo=https://download.copr.fedorainfracloud.org/results/thrnciar/python-sphinx/fedora-rawhide-x86_64/ shell

We'd like to include Sphinx 8 in Fedora 42.
Let us know here if you have any questions. Thank you!

This bug appears to have been reported against 'rawhide' during the Fedora Linux 42 development cycle.
Changing version to 42.
