[Python-modules-team] Bug#895880: sphinxcontrib-websupport: autopkgtest fails since sphinx 1.7.2-1 (RemovedInSphinx17Warning)

[Paul Gevers]

Source: sphinxcontrib-websupport
Version: 1.0.1-2
Severity: normal
User: debian-ci at lists.debian.org
Usertags: progression

Since the upload of sphinx version 1.7.2-1, your autopkgtest¹ fails with
the error copied below. Looking at the name of the module it complains
about, I think that the module RemovedInSphinx17Warning was removed in
sphinx version 1.7.x.

The error appears in the test code, but maybe it is also used in the
regular code (I didn't check). In that case this bug is more severe than
*normal*.

In any case, could you please fix your autopkgtests?
