--- Comment #2 from vanyossi <ghe...@gmail.com> ---
I made the sphinx latex render possible on the first versions of the manual
just before gitlab. the foundation is there to be used. However its been a long
time since I built a pdf version of the manual so it may no t be working
anymore. The things I remember doing to make it work:

- its easier if all svg are converted to png (latexImageMakefile deals with
this)
- our latex build system uses xelatex instead of pdflatex

Afair "sphinx-build -b latex" should be the way to call it so it builds the pdf
version. This creates a _build/latex subdiretory, cd to that directory and run
make. The first thing it will do is transform all images from svg to pdf (uses
imageMagick to do it), thenit will compile the pdf using xelatex (this ensures
any language is supported).

I can't guarantee it will work since its been a while since I setup the latex
build system for the manual.
