Yeah, there were simply too much warnings with docs, and 3.2.1 is
even worse.

Things will improve a lot after merging my set of patches fixing
the issues for it. Yet, there are some warnings that can't currently
be fixed on Sphinx 3.2 (~10 warnings). Fixing those will require
some internal changes in Sphinx itself.

So, except if you need Sphinx 3 for some reason, I would suggest you
to uninstall it, and then use venv with Sphinx 2.4.4. The Kernel build
system should be able to provide you the commands for installing it,
once you remove the one from your PATH.

Yes, that's the plan.

Thanks,
Mauro
