Thanks for the response. I knew one has to run pdflatex twice (when any of the links change) and should have put that in my report above. I did not know three times was necessary in some cases. Unfortunately, this does not fix the problem; i.e., the following rm -r _build sphinx-build -b latex . _build/latex cd _build/latex pdflatex <project_value>.tex pdflatex <project_value>.tex pdflatex <project_value>.tex has the same result No file <project_value>.ind in the file file _build/latex/<project_value>.log and the index is not in the file _build/latex/<project_value>.pdf
I added the rm -r _build because you must first delete the old _build directory to test this. If you don't, the old <project_value>.ind file from the previous make latexpdf gets used by the pdflatex <project_value>.tex command.
