First of all currently it is not possible to use straight sphinx-build command to build documentation out of source tree

First part of warnings can be fixed by patch like below:

This patch fixes what is in the comment and that can of fix is suggested in sphinx example copy.py https://www.sphinx-doc.org/en/master/usage/configuration.html#example-of-configuration-file

Than .. on building my packages I'm using sphinx-build command with -n switch which shows warmings about missing references. These are not critical issues.

@kloczek can you review #554 please?

[kloczek]

One sec 😋

ERROR Missing dependencies:
        Cython~=3.0.0

Cannot temporary test this PR because I'm holding upgrade of the cython to 3.x as there are few issues with that upgrade which affects builds of some modules.
Hopefully those issues will be sorted out shortly.
Will back when will upgrade my packages to cython to 3.x.

[kloczek]

Tested that and all look clean now 👍 😄
