Can you elaborate? Not sure how that's useful for online documentation?

It is not, but it is for offline use. Not everybody depends (or wants to depend) on online docs, and given its a feature already built in to ReadTheDocs, why not?

RTD is a purely online system. I think you're referring to sphinx config? Why can't you just do sphinx-build -b latex ./docs/ /tmp/output and then pdflatex libgpiod.tex?

Actually, this was not "completed".
