That class has an option, break_on_hyphens, which defaults to True but can be set to False. For Policy, we want to set it to False, but Sphinx doesn't expose a configuration setting that allows this. I'm reassigning this bug to Sphinx, but it's really an upstream feature request. -- Russ Allbery (r...@debian.org) <https://www.eyrie.org/~eagle/>
