Dear Maintainer,

libmypaint fails to build with Sphinx 1.8, currently available in
experimental:

  sphinx-build source/ build/
  Running Sphinx v1.8.3

  Extension error:
  Could not import extension sphinx.ext.pngmath (exception: No module named 
'sphinx.ext.pngmath')

The pngmath extension was deprecated in Sphinx 1.4 and has been removed [1]
in Sphinx 1.8. The recommended alternative is sphinx.ext.imgmath [2] which
also has SVG support in addition to PNG.

To me it looks like this extension is unused anyway: there are no “.. math::”
directives or “:math:” roles, and libmypaint-doc does not have any generated
PNG images. So this extension can be simply removed from extensions in
conf.py.
