Hi, I was doing the same half year ago in my thesis. What I did was to
cut the sphinx-generated LaTeX source file in pieces, and then include
them at appropriate places; a part of the sphinx-generated preamble
was to be included in the global preamble.
I had to replace a few things with regexps, such as hyper-references
to sphinx bibliography by \cite{...} (Sphinx references were generated
from a .bib files, and those .bib files were then included directly in
the resulting doc).
You can browse the code at
http://bazaar.launchpad.net/~eudoxos/+junk/thesis/files
; you will be particularly interested in build.py (which cuts the
sphinx doc in chunks, does the substitutions and saves them) and
thesis.tex, which is the master document. The sphinx preamble is
included at line 12, and the sections from sphinx start from 190.
The final pdf is available from
http://beta.arcig.cz/~eudoxos/smilauer2010-phd-thesis.pdf
, the sphinx sections are chapters 5, 6, 7 (pg. 69-148) and appendices
C, D (161-240). The HTML sphinx doc is (the version online is updated,
so does not correspond exactly) at http://www.yade-dem.org/sphinx/
(chapter 2 of the thesis was originally written in LaTeX, then
converted to sphinx, so is part of the HTML docs now).
HTH, Vaclav
