Hello.
I recently assumed the sphinx package maintenance for Fedora.
When I observed the package structure, I realized it is based on source
code developed in C, with latest stable version available in next link:
http://sphinxsearch.com/downloads/current/
Latest binary versions from previous link (for example, v3.4.1) link to
python base source code.
Once I have inspected the package structure and the upstream project, I
realized Sphinx was migrated to python, and newer versions can be
downloaded via the "pip" tool. Apart from that, there is already a
"python-sphinx" package to handle sphinx tools.
So I guess the correct way to go here is to orphan the C based package
(sphinx), unless there is some detail I am missing to keep it maintained.
Thanks
