I guess that is something out of the waf error logging. You can see where these checks are built in common/waf.py contents.rst appears to be something generated dynamically by that waf.py in check_sphinx_extension, so that is not something you can test independently. > I tried adding the recommended configuration settings to each of the > conf.py files as sphinxcontrib-bibtex’s documentation recommended, and > > I added “master_doc = 'contents'” to each of them as well based on the > warning message from config.log.

Since that check uses the -C flag, the config file doesn't get read, so modifying conf.py will bring no joy. That said, we should include that bibtex_bibfiles in our conf.py, so I add that in a separate patch. You can create a file contents.rst by hand and put in it the same: .. COMMENT sphinx test then you can run $ sphinx-build -b html -D extensions=sphinx.ext.autodoc -C . out contents.rst for example Unfortunately, I can't seem to figure out how to pass the bibtex_bibfiles list to the command line. Everything I tried ends up parsing it into individual characters, e.g., $ touch refs.bib $ sphinx-build -b html -D extensions=sphinxcontrib.bibtex -D bibtex_bibfiles=refs.bib -C . out contents.rst WARNING: could not open bibtex file /mnt/devel/rtems/rtems-docs/build/r. WARNING: could not open bibtex file /mnt/devel/rtems/rtems-docs/build/e. WARNING: could not open bibtex file /mnt/devel/rtems/rtems-docs/build/f. WARNING: could not open bibtex file /mnt/devel/rtems/rtems-docs/build/s. then it dies because it can't open . What I could get to work is to create a minimal config file and pass that: $ echo "bibtex_bibfiles = ['refs.bib']" > conf.py sphinx-build -b html -D extensions=sphinxcontrib.bibtex -c . . out contents.rst So I made the check rule dynamically create refs.bib and conf.py within the testbuild directory. It might be more elegant to figure out how to pass the _list_ that contains refs.bib in the command line -D version, but this seemed to work. I also added the bibtex_bibfiles setting to our common/conf.py file. Please try out the patch I just sent.
