Docs publishing pipeline failed to include PR #5929 terminal-directive changes in 8.13.2 and 8.14.0 releases; tutorial on main has since been substantially reworked, no maintainer response in 214 days

Suggested action: needs triage

Reason: Filed 214 days ago by maintainer medubelko with zero comments, no assignee, and no triage labels beyond the initial Bug/Documentation tags. The specific affected releases (8.13.2, 8.14.0) are now historical and the tutorial on main has been substantially reworked (commits #6316, #6231, #6269), but there is no evidence the underlying publishing pipeline issue was diagnosed or fixed, so a maintainer needs to assess whether this is still actionable or a one-time event.

Issue body

### Check existing issues - [x] I've verified that this request isn't described by any existing issues. ### Request In December I [patched](https://github.com/canonical/snapcraft/pull/5929) the tutorial in `hotfix/8.13` to remove multiple instances of the terminal directive. Neither 8.13.2 nor 8.14.0 published this change. Other doc changes, like the 8.14 release notes, were. `hotfix/8.14` code: https://github.com/canonical/snapcraft/blob/89f77e6f8b2b382ed17c9bec5245b4a60569a10d/docs/tutorials/craft-a-snap.rst?plain=1#L242 Result: https://documentation.ubuntu.com/snapcraft/8.14.0/tutorials/craft-a-snap/#pack-the-snap ### Document location https://documentation.ubuntu.com/snapcraft/8.14.0/tutorials/craft-a-snap/#pack-the-snap
