Hi,

Sphinx 1.2 was just released and it is incompatible with distutils in
python 2.7.  See these links for more info:

  https://bitbucket.org/birkenfeld/sphinx/pull-request/193/builddoc-shouldnt-fail-on-unicode-paths/diff
  http://bugs.python.org/issue19570

This has caused all -docs jobs to fail.  This morning we merged a change
to openstack/requirements to pin Sphinx to version 1.2:

  https://review.openstack.org/#/c/61164/

Sergey Lukjanov, Clark Boylan, and Jeremy Stanley finished up the
automatic requirements proposal job (Thanks!), and so now updates have
been automatically proposed to all projects that subscribe:

  https://review.openstack.org/#/q/topic:openstack/requirements,n,z

Once those changes merge, -docs jobs for affected projects should start
working again.

Note that requirements updates for stable branches are proceeding
separately; you can track their progress here:
