Issue 17412: Windows make.bat fails on 2.7 (original) (raw)

From Command Prompt ''' F:\Python\dev\py27\Doc>make html Running Sphinx v0.6.7

Extension error: Could not import extension pyspecific (exception: No module named nodes) ''' Note the old version of Sphinx installed by make checkout. I updated make.bat sphinx download to 1.0.7, the same as all the 3.x make.bats, deleted tools/sphinx (otherwise, svn refuses to redownload), and redid 'make checkout' and 'make html', I got 'build succeeded'. I loaded index.html and the doc files seemed normal (except be being more sprightly due to files being local ;-). I loaded the library manual, followed links, and tested the two indexes.

Was not updating 2.7 make.bat an oversight and is this simple fix the right one? or do 2.7 docs need the old version, albeit with the missing nodes module added?
