Well, PDF docs are one of the reason why we moved to Sphinx so many years ago, 
so bummer.

I admit that until/unless someone goes in and cleans up the documentation 
output for LaTeX, it's not going to look pretty. That said, I would be against 
dropping them just on the basis of them looking bad. But if no one other than 
me is able to build the PDF docs easily, then I won't stand in anyone's way.


Thanks,
