Yes, it's expected.
Sphinx 3.4.3 provided as distro packages of Debian 11 (bullseye),
RHEL 9, and so on is good enough for kernel documentation.
Suggesting upgrade to a latest release would be noisy.
The version is assigned to $rec_version in sphinx-pre-install.
As a fix to requirements.txt for v6.8, this looks to me like a nice
minimal change.
Lukas, many thanks for doing this.
