Sphinx Install
==============
The ReST markups currently used by the Documentation/ files are meant to be
built with ``Sphinx`` version 1.3 or upper. If you're desiring to build
PDF outputs, it is recommended to use version 1.4.6 or upper.
.. note::
Please notice that, for PDF and LaTeX output, you'll also need ``XeLaTeX``
version 3.14159265. Depending on the distribution, you may also need to
install a series of ``texlive`` packages that provide the minimal set of
functionalities required for ``XeLaTex`` to work. For PDF output you'll also
need ``convert(1)`` from ImageMagick (https://www.imagemagick.org).
