linkColor does not work for ref attribute

[Sachin Suresh]

The linkColor defined in my custom style sheet YAML does not work for the ref element.

Here is my conf.py file:

..
# A comma-separated list of custom stylesheets. Example:
pdf_stylesheets = ['sphinx','a4', "custom_pdf_styles"]

In custom_pdf_styles.yaml

linkColor: blue

pageSetup:
    size: Legal

In file1.rst

The goal of this phase is to verify that the site meets the :ref:`Warehouse Requirements`.

When I run the sphinx-build -b pdf . build/pdf, the page in PDF with the above ref attribute looks like:

Expected behavior:

When I run the sphinx-build -b pdf . build/pdf, I should be able to see blue color for the link- 'Warehouse Requirements'.

I'd want to note that "linkColor" isn't even mentioned in official manual (https://rst2pdf.org/static/manual.html)
