>From asciidoc perspective, dblatex is quite important for generating PDF files (even it's called just via shell method).
I have contacted asciidoc upstream (asciidoc-py3 to be precised) with question about dblatex replacement.
I'll let you know once they reply.

| An x86_64 scratch build with this change completed successfully:

| So the dblatex dependency can just be dropped from gcc.spec, which
