Thanks for report. I will rebuild aganist sphinx/sid and upload new
cdist revision.

I can't reproduce it. Just built fine with python3-sphinx-rtd-theme
installed, python-sphinx-rtd-theme not and with python2.7 installed.

I am afraid of such measures. For example, it would mean, that I
wouldn't be able to build without sbuild. (My computer have packages,
that depends on python2.7)
More input is welcome.
