I think we should still display the help (without warnings!) even if the
tool is not available. Patch follows.

That seems like a reasonable request, we'll make it happen.

Makefile.sphinx:17: The 'sphinx-build' command was not found

[Christian Kujau]

Hi,

since 22cba31bae ("Documentation/sphinx: add basic working Sphinx 
configuration and build") the following warning is emitted when running 
"make help":

$ make help > /dev/null 
Documentation/Makefile.sphinx:17: The 'sphinx-build' command was not 
found. Make sure you have Sphinx installed and in PATH, or set the 
SPHINXBUILD make variable to point to the full path of the 'sphinx-build' 
executable.

Indeed, I don't have "sphinx-build" installed (nor do I want to build 
documentation), running "make SPHINXBUILD=/bin/true help" makes the 
warning go away. Is there a way to omit the warning when 
running "make help"? E.g. by not including Documentation/Makefile.sphinx 
for that target?

Thanks,
Christian.
