I think the problem is Sphinx: my guess is that when the Sphinx version got bumped in https://github.com/sagemath/sage/pull/39577, sphinxcontrib-htmlhelp also needed a bump. If I look at the Sphinx build log, I see:
spkg-pipinst] ERROR: Could not find a version that satisfies the requirement sphinxcontrib-htmlhelp>=2.0.6 (from sphinx) (from versions: 2.0.5) [spkg-pipinst] ERROR: No matching distribution found for sphinxcontrib-htmlhelp>=2.0.6 I also see this: [spkg-pipinst] Warning: The installation needed to use "--no-deps --ignore-installed --ignore-requires-python" to succeed. This means that a dependencies file in build/pkgs/ needs to be updated. Please report this to sage-devel@googlegroups.com, including the build log of this package. I don't know why the build was considered successful after this, but apparently it was. Anyway, consider this as having been reported.
