Fixing a warning in single HTML page documentation generation (sphinx)

[vhelin]

Here's the output I get when generating the documentation:

[ 99%] Generating simple text documentation
[ 99%] Built target doc-stext
[ 99%] Generating man pages
[ 99%] Built target doc-man
[100%] Generating single HTML page documentation
/usr/lib/python3.9/site-packages/sphinx/builders/html/__init__.py:626: FutureWarning: The configuration setting "embed_images" will be removed in Docutils 1.2. Use "image_loading: link".
  self.docwriter.write(doctree, destination)
[100%] Built target doc-shtml
[100%] Built target doc

I think I've had that warning there for a long time, so getting it fixed might be a good idea in the long term? Anyone here who knows how sphinx works (I don't)? :)

I tried getting it installed like the other tools PVSnesLib uses, do you know if it's available through pacman?

# pacman -S sphinx
error: target not found: sphinx

The only pacman I know is a Japanese video game LOL. :D Help here, anyone?

Here is the official documentation:

https://www.sphinx-doc.org/en/master/usage/installation.html

I get the same error with both pacman -S python3-sphinx and pacman -S python-sphinx though.

It was very difficult but I made some progress on getting sphinx installed. First add these lines to /etc/pacman.conf:

[community]
SigLevel = Never

I also did:

wget ftp://mirror.csclub.uwaterloo.ca/archlinux/community/os/x86_64/community.db

and moved them like described here: https://unix.stackexchange.com/questions/34606/pacman-could-not-find-database

Then I was able to get to:

$ pacman -S community/python-sphinx
