Approved on the understanding that this isn't destined for any Raring release media. Moving back to ubuntu-sponsors.

I found and fixed a few nitpicks:

- Fix broken version number (-0ubuntu1, not -ubuntu1)
- Removing stub sphinx3-doc.docs
- Dropped XSBC-Original-Maintainer: from debian/control, this package isn't in Debian at all
- Bumped Standards-Version to 3.9.4

Otherwise the packaging, debian/copyright, etc. look fine to me. The library isn't multiarched; that's not a biggie for now, but please do this as it will be a blocker for getting this into main. Packages build fine, debs look reasonable.

I uploaded this now. It will need NEW review first though, so it won't appear in raring right away.

I don't like the name of the source package that much. We already have a python-sphinx package, and a binary python3-sphinx package in the archive. So what happens if this sphinx package decides to have some python bindings?

Also maybe rename the source package to something not that generic.

Matthias, I was simply following the names of the CMU projects:
http://sourceforge.net/projects/cmusphinx/files/

I admit it is a little confusing - but sphinx4, for example, is a totally different piece of software than sphinx3 and so on.

In your example, I would expect the python modules to be called python-sphinx3 and python3-sphinx3?
