The .inv files are generated by Sphinx during normal HTML build. In case of https://docs.python.org/objects.inv, you do not need to regenerate it yourself. You should just depend on python3-doc and point Sphinx to /usr/share/doc/python3/html/objects.inv. Here you can find examples of how other packages do it: https://codesearch.debian.net/search?q=html%2Fobjects%5C.inv+path%3Adebian%2Fpatches%2F.* -- Dmitry Shachnev
