quark-sphinx-theme fails to build with Sphinx 7.1 and docutils 0.20, both of which

A new upstream version 0.6.0 has been sitting in git since 2022, so I
wondered whether it fixed this. But instead it just has different
errors (see below).

I'm wondering whether we should just remove this package from Debian?
It has no reverse-dependencies, and https://gitlab.com/fkrull/quark-sphinx-theme shows the project as
unmaintained and suggests that the errors below mean that it isn't realistically compatible with modern Sphinx any more.
