values to a list.
Log an error message when string values are detected.
Patch by Adam Turner.
* 12594: LaTeX: since 7.4.0, :rst:dir:`seealso` and other "light" admonitions
now break PDF builds if they contain a :dudir:`figure` directive; and also
if they are contained in a table cell (rendered by ``tabulary``).
Patch by Jean-François B.

7.4.4

=====================================

Bugs fixed
----------

* 12585, 12586: Do not warn when an intersphinx inventory contains
case-insensitively ambiguous duplicate items.
Patch by James Addison.

7.4.0

=====================================

Dependencies
------------

* 12555: Drop Docutils 0.18.1 and Docutils 0.19 support.
Patch by Adam Turner.
* LaTeX: the ``xcolor`` package is now required (but is for example part of
Ubuntu ``texlive-latex-recommended`` which has always been required).
* LaTeX: the ``fontawesome5`` LaTeX package is needed for the default choices
of icons now used in admonition titles in PDF output; but if unavailable the
PDF build will simply silently omit rendering such icons.  Check the
documentation of the ``iconpackage`` key of :ref:`'sphinxsetup'
<latexsphinxsetup>` for more.

Deprecated
----------

* LaTeX: the ``sphinxlightbox`` environment is not used anymore, all types
of admonitions use (by default) only ``sphinxheavybox``.
