I'll take a look at rubber. I actually think it might better if Sphinx
didn't include any extra scripts, but the Makefile should test to see if
rubber (or latemk) is present and use it if so. I'm very far from an expert
in Makefiles, but this sort of testing shouldn't be too hard. Here's one
way which seems to work, and I would not be at all surprised if there were
better ways:
TRY_LATEXMK = $(shell command -v latexmk)
%.pdf: %.tex
ifneq (,$(TRY_LATEXMK))
latexmk -pdf $(LATEXOPTS) '$<'
else
pdflatex $(LATEXOPTS) '$<'
pdflatex $(LATEXOPTS) '$<'
pdflatex $(LATEXOPTS) '$<'
-makeindex -s python.ist '$(basename $<).idx'
pdflatex $(LATEXOPTS) '$<'
pdflatex $(LATEXOPTS) '$<'
endif
