<summary>sphinx-doc/sphinx (Sphinx)</summary>
### [`v8.1.2`](https://redirect.github.com/sphinx-doc/sphinx/blob/HEAD/CHANGES.rst#Release-812-released-Oct-12-2024)

## Bugs fixed
- [#​13012](https://redirect.github.com/sphinx-doc/sphinx/issues/13012): Expose :exc:`sphinx.errors.ExtensionError` in `sphinx.util`
for backwards compatibility.
This will be removed in Sphinx 9, as exposing the exception
in `sphinx.util` was never intentional.
:exc:`!ExtensionError` has been part of `sphinx.errors` since Sphinx 0.9.
