It seems ban is quite radical solution. I thought I have seen that in
guidelines and indeed. Fonts should not be bundled by other packages
[1]. Are system libraries only native code libraries? Doesn't jquery
count as system library itself? If javascript libraries do not require
any attempts to not duplicate shared code, shouldn't it be mentioned
somewhere in guidelines? It seems they try to avoid current situation [2].

I could certainly help with some pull requests, but any change cannot be
done at all without cooperation of theme package maintainers.

Fedora theme would help to avoid local fonts, but would leave unresolved
jquery and underline bundles. Those are part of basic sphinx theme. So
change of theme might help only partially. But it would be
self-contained change, I guess worth trying. I admit npm processed
theme.css is far outside of my expertise. I found we already have some
infrastructure for similar things at /usr/share/web-assets/fonts/ and
/usr/share/web-assets/javascript/, perhaps it should be reused also for
html manuals.

Unless documentation build time would be simple to modify,
post-processing of installed documentation to (sym)link to shared assets
might be simpler. And would require almost no work from sphinx or themes
maintainers.

Cheers,
Petr
