These packages are supposed to cover LaTeX packages necessary
for building LaTeX sources the version of Sphinx generates.

HOWEVER, in my test of openSUSE Leap 15.4, pythno3-Sphinx-4_2_0-latex
does not cover texlive-tex-gyre, which is required since Sphinx 4.0.0.

Changelog of Sphinx 4.0.0 [1] says:

I'm thinking of opening a ticket at openSUSE's bugzilla.

Fedora 36's python3-sphinx-latex (for Sphinx 4.4.0) has
texlive-collection-fontsrecommended and covers texlive-tex-gyre naturally.

        Thanks, Akira
