With the updates to the Sphinx toolchain for 3.3 (05e84d3ecd1e) and 3.4 (90cd87f64632), the documentation build for the OS X installer now fails with:
  
Error: The markupsafe module cannot be found. Did you install Sphinx and its dependencies correctly?

It appears that the updated version of jinja2 now requires MarkupSafe.

Also, the updated version of jinja2 now requires at least Python 2.6. Prior to these toolchain updates it was possible to build the Python documentation (and all of Python 2.x or 3.x) with Python 2.5.  Perhaps this change should be documented somewhere since it does cause some breakage.  For example, the current Python 32-bit-only installers are built on OS X 10.5; up until now, the Apple-supplied system Python 2.5 could be used to bootstrap the build and build the documentation.  Now we'll have to supply a newer local Python to do that.

That's unfortunate, thanks for catching that.  Of course I had markupsafe installed for my system Python.

One more reason to switch to virtualenv at some point.

I think we can go back to the old Jinja version -- there haven't been bugs to my knowledge and Sphinx doesn't require any advanced features there may be.

But just as a heads up -- Sphinx 1.3 will also require Python 2.6 :)
