New submission from jfbu <j...@free.fr>:
There has been a bug at Sphinx since release 1.5 https://github.com/sphinx-doc/sphinx/issues/5234 about wrong handling of PAPER environment variable. The Makefile in Doc/ reproduces the error. As a result the "A4 latex" and "letter latex" sub targets of "dist" mis-behave. A bugfix will be released at Sphinx 1.7.7 or 1.8 but the CPython Doc/Makefile needs an update, because the bugfix can only solve problems for new projects created with sphinx-quickstart (whether or not using the "make-mode" small Makefile, or the "no-make-mode" bigger Makefile which was default up to Sphinx 1.5). I will send PR next. ---------- assignee: docs@python components: Documentation messages: 322770 nosy: docs@python, jfbu priority: normal severity: normal status: open title: DOC: Makefile inherits a Sphinx 1.5 bug regarding PAPER envvar type: behavior _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <https://bugs.python.org/issue34293> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: https://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
