> Do you understand why the Sphinx installation process says "Adding
docutils 0.7 to easy-install.pth file" but doesn't actually do anything?
Well, Sphinx just uses distutils / distribute, and IIRC that prints that
message.
A problem we previously had was that packages found in Python's current
path won't get added, despite of the message (which is printed in
advance).

prerequisites in SPKG.txt should be changed (or explained, if it should
stay as is).
Yes, I can correct them. AFAIK a couple of spkgs have rather "random"
numbers as the minimal version of some other package required; usually
simply the current version in Sage is taken. (And not even the upstream
pages always give the correct versions required, some not even the full
list of requirements.)
