[PATCH v2] docs: scripts: sphinx-pre-install: Fix building docs with pyyaml package
Posted by Thorsten Blum 1 year, 12 months ago 
The Python module pyyaml is required to build the docs, but it is only
listed in Documentation/sphinx/requirements.txt and is therefore missing
when Sphinx is installed as a package and not via pip/pypi.

Add pyyaml as an optional package for Debian- and Red Hat-based distros to
fix building the docs if you prefer to install Sphinx as a package.

This seems to work.

Can/should we add it to give_opensuse_hints() as well, given that it
also apparently allows you to install Sphinx via the distro package
manager? (Not sure about mageia/arch/gentoo.)

The commit message should be correct. The system package is optional, but the
Python module itself is required.

Yes, I'll submit a v3 shortly.

[PATCH v3] docs: scripts: sphinx-pre-install: Fix building docs with pyyaml package
Posted by Thorsten Blum 1 year, 12 months ago 
The Python module pyyaml is required to build the docs, but it is only
listed in Documentation/sphinx/requirements.txt and is therefore missing
when Sphinx is installed as a package and not via pip/pypi.

Add pyyaml as an optional package for multiple distros to fix building the
docs if you prefer to install Sphinx as a package.
