Package: python-sphinx
Version: 0.6.3-1
Severity: wishlist

Currently if ReST source links to some location on the same website, which was
not generated by sphinx, e.g.:

.. _PDF-guide: PyMVPA-DevGuide.pdf
.. _API Reference: api/index.html

then linkcheck complaints:

index.rst:76: [malformed] PyMVPA-DevGuide.pdf
index.rst:78: [malformed] api/index.html

looking at CheckExternalLinksBuilder it seems to have no ability (yet) to check
simply either that URI leads to some local file, which is indeed present, and
thus is a legal link.

Patch I guess should be quite minimal (os.path.exists) or might be extended
with checks either it is readable/available etc.


Thanks in advance for tunneling bug appropriately if necessary ;)
