Updating dependencies
Resolving dependencies...


The current project's supported Python range (>=3.9,<3.13) is not compatible with some of the required packages Python requirement:
  - sphinx requires Python >=3.10, so it will not be satisfied for Python >=3.9,<3.10

Because no versions of sphinx match >8.0.2,<9.0.0
 and sphinx (8.0.2) requires Python >=3.10, sphinx is forbidden.
So, because runway depends on sphinx (^8.0.2), version solving failed.

  • Check your dependencies Python requirement: The Python requirement can be specified via the `python` or `markers` properties
    
    For sphinx, a possible solution would be to set the `python` property to ">=3.10,<3.13"

[ITProKyle]

Updating sphinx to ^8.0.0 requires python ^3.10 so this is blocked until we drop support for python 3.9. Closing for now to reduce clutter, renovate can be configured to reconvene updates at a later date.
