Larry Hastings added the comment:
When I built the documentation, I used
% release.py --export 3.5.0
(release.py coming from hg.python.org/release, a collection of release manager
tools.) I then installed this build as the 3.5.0 documentation, specifically
the build from "python-3.5.0-docs-html.tar.bz2". I do that so that people
don't complain "hey the documentation is out of date!" when the release goes
live. I wouldn't be surprised if the version picker is suppressed in this
build, as it's intended to be installed by users.
However, there's a cron job that rebuilds the documentation automatically. I'm
not sure how often, but I think it's every couple of hours. That build
process, whatever it is, should definitely enable the version picker.
Normally the cron job would have overwritten the docs by now. However I just
discovered I left the docs non-group-writeable when I installed them, which
meant the cron job couldn't overwrite them. I just fixed that, and hopefully
within a couple of hours the cron job will awake from its slumber and overwrite
everything.
tl;dr: Hopefully it'll silently fix itself sometime today.
