Source: python-ncclient
Version: 0.6.0-1
Severity: important
User: python-modules-team@lists.alioth.debian.org
Usertags: sphinx1.8

Dear Maintainer,

python-ncclient fails to build with Sphinx 1.8, currently available in
experimental:

  sphinx-build -b html docs/source/ /<<PKGBUILDDIR>>/debian/python-ncclient-doc/usr/share/doc/python-ncclient/html
  Running Sphinx v1.8.3

  Extension error:
  Could not import extension sphinx.ext.pngmath (exception: No module named 'sphinx.ext.pngmath')

The pngmath extension was deprecated in Sphinx 1.4 and has been removed [1]
in Sphinx 1.8. The recommended alternative is sphinx.ext.imgmath [2] which
also has SVG support in addition to PNG.

To me it looks like this extension is unused anyway: there are no “.. math::”
directives or “:math:” roles, and python-ncclient-doc does not have any
generated PNG images. So this extension can be simply removed from extensions
in conf.py.
