Deprecated APIs

On developing Sphinx, we are always careful to the compatibility of our APIs. But, sometimes, the change of interface are needed for some reasons. In such cases, we've marked them as deprecated. And they are kept during the two major versions (for more details, please see :ref:`deprecation-policy`).

The following is a list of deprecated interfaces.

Note

On deprecating on public APIs (internal functions and classes), we also follow the policy as much as possible.
