This is a subclass of :exc:`python:PendingDeprecationWarning`, i.e. it
will not get displayed by default.

The warnings are displayed by default. You can turn off display of these Deprecation warnings
warnings with: ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Sphinx will enable its ``RemovedInNextVersionWarning`` warnings by default,
if :envvar:`python:PYTHONWARNINGS` is not set.
Therefore you can disable them using:
* ``PYTHONWARNINGS= make html`` (Linux/Mac) * ``PYTHONWARNINGS= make html`` (Linux/Mac)
* ``export PYTHONWARNINGS=`` and do ``make html`` (Linux/Mac) * ``export PYTHONWARNINGS=`` and do ``make html`` (Linux/Mac)
* ``set PYTHONWARNINGS=`` and do ``make html`` (Windows) * ``set PYTHONWARNINGS=`` and do ``make html`` (Windows)
But you can also explicitly enable the pending ones using e.g.
``PYTHONWARNINGS=default`` (see the
:ref:`Python docs on configuring warnings <python:describing-warning-filters>`)
for more details.
