Mauro says:
This patch series fix Sphinx to allow it to build the media
documentation as a PDF file.
The first patch is actually a bug fix: one of the previous patch
broke compilation for PDF as a hole, as it added an extra
parenthesis to a function call.
The second patch just removes a left over code for rst2pdf.
The other patches change from "pdflatex" to "xelatex" and address
several issues that prevent building the media books.
I think this patch series belong to docs-next. Feel free to merge
them there, if you agree. There's one extra patch that touches
Documentation/conf.py, re-adding the media book to the PDF build,
but IMHO this one would be better to be merged via the media tree,
after the fixes inside the media documentation to fix the build.
This extension will be used by the media books.
The name of the math image extension changed on Sphinx 1.4.x,
according with:
http://www.sphinx-doc.org/en/stable/ext/math.html#module-sphinx.ext.imgmath
Let's autodetect, to keep building with versions < 1.4.

pdflatex doesn't accept using some UTF-8 chars, like

the media documents use them. So, we need to use XeLaTeX for

Add a generic way to build only a reST sub-folder with or

* control *sub-folders* by environment SPHINXDIRS
* control *build-theme* by environment SPHINX_CONF
Folders with a conf.py file, matching $(srctree)/Documentation/*/conf.py
can be build and distributed *stand-alone*. E.g. to compile only the
html of 'media' and 'gpu' folder use::
make SPHINXDIRS="media gpu" htmldocs
To use an additional sphinx-build configuration (*build-theme*) set the
name of the configuration file to SPHINX_CONF. E.g. to compile only the
html of 'media' with the *nit-picking* build use::
make SPHINXDIRS=media SPHINX_CONF=conf_nitpick.py htmldocs
With this, the Documentation/conf.py is read first and updated with the

Looks like rst2pdf is not robust enough, especially for large documents.
Use recursive make on the Sphinx generated makefile to convert latex to
pdf. The ugly detail is that pdf is generated into
Documentation/output/latex.
Unfortunately, the pdflatex build generates huge amounts of build log
noise, and also fails in the end. We'll fix that next.
