Intersphinx mapping https://docs.pytest.org/en/6.2.0/objects.inv moved?

[robsan00]

In our repository, we have pytest pinned to version 6.2.0 and have therefore pinned the intersphinx mapping to "https://docs.pytest.org/en/6.2.0/objects.inv". Since yesterday, this link seems to be broken. "latest" and "stable" still seem to work, but the version specific one does not (not only 6.2.0, 6.2.1 does neither).

Hi @robsan00,

Thanks for writing up.

Yes this is intentional, we are keeping only latest, stable, and 4.6.x versions online now, please see this thread: #8098.

Closing for now, but feel free to follow up with further questions. 👍
