errors building docs

_Darren_Dale2 · December 13, 2008, 1:32pm

I am seeing some errors when I build the docs, including import errors for nonexistent date_support and basic_units modules, and:

I get a similar error that I assumed was caused by the docs being
generated by the version of matplotlib that is currently installed,
rather than the new version that has just been compiled. I know the
debian package has a workaround for this.

I get:

There is an examples directory, but no mpl_examples directory. Nb this
error is from the 0.98.4 tarfile compiled on debian lenny with the
sphinx 0.5 from debian's experimental packages.

I get a similar error that I assumed was caused by the docs being

rather than the new version that has just been compiled. I know the
debian package has a workaround for this.

Of course we have one

We build doc this way:

( cd doc ; MATPLOTLIBDATA=../lib/matplotlib/mpl-data/ \
PYTHONPATH=../build/lib.$PY\_PLATFORM$\-(DEFPY) ./make.py )

after having built mpl module. $PY\_PLATFORM$\-(DEFPY) is to be
generic on the arch and the python version we are using to build the
package, so you can replace it with the dir where the module was
compiled.

Cheers,

I tried that but the problem persists. I have sphinx-0.4.2 installed, are you using the same version?

I haven’t been able to get to the root of this problem, but an “svn-clean” in the doc directory always fixes it for me.

Can you post the full traceback sphinx is pointing you to,o:

I tried that but the problem persists. I have sphinx-0.4.2 installed, are
you using the same version?

_Darren_Dale2 · December 15, 2008, 4:02pm

(John suggested in a private email to try upgrading to sphinx-0.5.)

You’re right, the error does not occur with sphinx-0.5. It looks like
the API for registering nodes has changed as of 0.5. The development
branch of sphinx was throwing errors when it got to latex, so I had a
look and came up with some changes that work with both version 0.5 and
the development branch. The changes are not compatible with
sphinx-0.4.2, but it looks like we are requiring version 0.5 or later
now anyway. If this is the case, I’ll go ahead and commit the changes.
Here is the diff, please let me know if I should commit or if I should
hold off:

So, should the doc be build using sphinx 0.5? Would it be the standard
version of sphinx used by mpl now on? Just to know what dependency to
throw in once building mpl for Debian

Let me correct that -- I will test Darren's patch and if we can make
it work with an earlier sphinx I'm happy to try. Stay tuned. Darren,
can I assume you have tested this with 0.4.2 and the docs are building
for you with your patch. I will test on my tree.

I am getting errors trying to apply this patch on the 0.98.5 branch.
Could you send a fresh diff against the HEAD of that branch, and
attach it rather than paste it.

Here is the diff. I think I wasn’t clear though, this diff is intended to be compatible with sphinx-0.5 and later, it is not compatible with earlier versions. I can build the documentation using sphinx-0.5 with or without this patch, but the patch will be needed for future versions of sphinx, including the sphinx development branch.

I never did get to the bottom of the error building our docs with sphinx-0.4.2. I think it was an entirely different issue.

OK, after hearing the correction from Darren, the answer is that the
