Doc/tools/sphinxext not included in the 2.6.1 tarball, but it is checked in.

Does it also affect Python 3.0?

Wait, should Doc/tools/sphinxext be included in the source tarball or
not?  I thought it was a documentation build artifact.  If so, then we
need to clean out the pycs it contains in a different way.

In any case, the 3.0 tarballs should include sphinxext for better or
worse, because this directory is removed by the release.py script. 
However, the removal of it was not added to release.py until after the
3.0 tarballs were made (the 2.6.1 tarballs do not include sphinxext).

Tell me which it should be and I'll fix release.py

In my opinion the tar balls should contain all necessary bits and pieces
to build the docs yourself. It makes no sense to include the Doc/ folder
w/o any means to use them.

Let's include sphinxext and document the required versions of sphinx,
docutils and jinja.

This is a duplicate of issue 4551

I do *not* think that Doc/tools should include a complete sphinx
checkout; doing "make checkout" is completely acceptable for anybody who
wants to build the doc. However, sphinxext is different; this was fixed
in r67599

- 1, we didn't include latex in 2.5 as well.

sphinxext isn't included in sphinx, so it should be included in the
release tarball.

I don't want to *include* sphinx, jinja and docutils but *document*
which versions of sphinx, jinja and docutils are required to build the docs.

Well, those which "make checkout" checks out :)

I set this up so that nobody needs to care about any additional packages
or dependencies, as long as svn is installed and working.
