PyFR 1.1.0 Documentations Issue

Friday, 23 October 2015

All,

I’ve updated my local copy of the git repository once I saw Freddie merge in changes for the 1.1.0 release. When I go to update my copy of the documentation via sphinx, I run into an issue. From the doc sub-directory of the PyFR root directory, I execute:

make latexpdf

which returns the following error:

sphinx-build -b latex -d build/doctrees src build/latex
make: sphinx-build: No such file or directory
make: *** [latexpdf] Error 1

The sphinx-build command is found in my shell’s search path, and both build/doctrees and build/latex sub-directories exist. I’m not sure whether the make command needs to be updated so that the directory string passed to sphinx-build should be ./build/doctrees and ./build/latex, respectively, or not. This is the first release in which I’ve encountered this issue.

Best Regards,

Zach

Hi Zach,

I have just tried ‘make latexpdf’ on my system with Sphinx 1.3.1 and it seems to work fine (see attached)?

Cheers

Hi Peter,

It appears my TeX distribution moved in OS X 10.11. After updating my shell environment’s path to this new location and re-installing the sphinx package in my virtual environment, things are working again. Apologies for any inconvenience due to my user-error.

Best Regards,

Zach
