krb5 1.8 has been released in mid-February and it looks like the documentation build system has been migrated to python3. Could you please have a look at packaging this new version and switch over to python3-sphinx and friends? we're finally in the single digit number of rdeps for python-sphinx and we're trying to get rid of it (so that we can introduce a new, py3k-only, version that some packages already require). let me know if helps is needed Thanks, Sandro
