Issues with Sphinx 9.0.1

[RobertoRoos]

I noticed that tests are failing in Sphinx 9.0.2, which was released this week.

Locally I upgrade Sphinx with pip install -U sphinx and then try to build an example with: python -m sphinx -b html .\source\ .\build\html\ -E

The traceback I see:

Extension error!

Please also report this if it was a user error, so that a better error message can be provided next time.

It seems it's really autodoc that's having an issue.

Also shown in #79 , see https://github.com/sphinx-doc/sphinx-argparse/actions/runs/19854856005/job/56890142496

EDIT: Already reported higher up: sphinx-doc/sphinx#14142

from sphinx.ext.autodoc import mock

class ArgParseDirective(SphinxDirective):

    def run(self):
        ...
        if 'filename' not in self.options:
            with mock(self.config.autodoc_mock_imports):

Seems like mock used to be here

https://github.com/sphinx-doc/sphinx/blob/847ad0c991e21db9daa02fec09acbd456f353300/sphinx/ext/autodoc/__init__.py#L23

but now needs to be imported from here

https://github.com/sphinx-doc/sphinx/blob/a672c54642ee57c152a5a8b21444c2afbbcec24a/sphinx/ext/autodoc/mock.py#L11

So I guess this would solve it for sphinx 9.0

from sphinx.ext.autodoc.mock import mock
