This came from the spurious space tokens following a fullwidth rule at
top of ``\maketitle`` in ``sphinxhowto.cls`` and ``sphinxmanual.cls``.
The ``\newline\null\par`` incantation recreates the extra empty line
which originated in these spurious space tokens, but it avoids the
Underfull latex warning. Nothing is changed to layout from this fix.
This fixes only the case the label including both spaces and colons as
ad-hoc. There is still a bug if a label having spaces, colons and
numbers like "foo bar:baz 1234".
Note: To support the case, we have to improve the inventory format.
- new dimensions ``\sphinxverbatimsep`` and ``\sphinxverbatimborder``
configure the frame width and its separation from contents,
- new ``\ifsphinxverbatimwithframe`` and ``\ifsphinxverbatimwrapslines``
to customize behaviour of sphinxVerbatim or define wrapper
environments, such as sphinxVerbatimNoFrame and sphinxVerbatimintable,
- the latter is used in table cells, in place of OriginalVerbatim, thus
allowing to handle captions for code-blocks in tables (issue #2706).
On this occasion, a bit of refactoring in sphinx Verbatim code,
particularly the caption is typeset in advance to its insertion in
non-breakable from code location (this avoids using the amstext
``\iffirstchoice@`` conditional), and the sphinxVerbatim is usable
without any optional argument (but currently option is always present
and contains at least ``commandchars=\\\{\}`` to activate syntax
highlighting).
The refactoring maintains backwards compatibility for the non-customized
usage: but macros such as ``\py@noticesstart@note`` have been removed
and any customization by extension or user will be without effect.
However the ``notice`` environment is still used, hence customization or
modified usage of it will work as before.
The LaTeX writer now uses ``sphinxadmonition``. Currently it is a
wrapper of ``notice`` environment. At some future release ``>1.5`` of
Sphinx it is planned to remove definition of ``notice`` environment, and
rename it directly to ``sphinxadmonition``. In the transition period
both will work, but at end of transition period extensions using only
``notice`` will stop working and those using ``sphinxadmonition`` will
require at least Sphinx ``1.5``.
Seems longer lines are more frequent since 1.4. I hard-wrapped at 80
chars the ones I committed which sometimes exceeded 100 chars. Other
long lines remain (one has 108 chars).
