Something has changed recently that broke the build for me too:

sphinx:
     [echo] Running sphinx-build -D release=2.21-SNAPSHOT -W -b html -d
"/home/aaime/devel/git-gs/doc/en/target/docguide/doctrees" .
"/home/aaime/devel/git-gs/doc/en/target/docguide/html"
     [exec] /usr/local/lib/python2.7/dist-packages/sphinx/util/nodes.py:94:
FutureWarning:
     [exec]    The iterable returned by Node.traverse()
     [exec]    will become an iterator instead of a list in Docutils > 0.16.
     [exec]   for classifier in
reversed(node.parent.traverse(nodes.classifier)):

     [exec] Theme error:
     [exec] An error happened in rendering the page background.
     [exec] Reason: UndefinedError("'root_doc' is undefined",)

Did not touch the system installation, has built the docs fine till some
time ago.... Some recent change in the sphinx setup has made the
instructions "outdated".
Tried the instructions from the GeoCat docs, they worked.

Cheers
Andrea
