>From c2ce9e6de0a3dfea99de08af7b5eef5c983e76c8 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Jonathan Corbet Date: Tue, 9 Sep 2025 13:35:37 -0600 Subject: [PATCH] docs: kdoc: handle the obsolescensce of docutils.ErrorString() commit 00d95fcc4dee66dfb6980de6f2973b32f973a1eb upstream. The ErrorString() and SafeString() docutils functions were helpers meant to ease the handling of encodings during the Python 3 transition. There is no real need for them after Python 3.6, and docutils 0.22 removes them, breaking the docs build Handle this by just injecting our own one-liner version of ErrorString(), and removing the sole SafeString() call entirely.
