| | | | | | | | | | Currently, http://buildbot.python.org/all/buildslaves/ware-docs buildbot is only run as post-commit. For example, bpo-29521 (PR#41) introduced two warnings, unnotified by the Travis CI docs job. Modify the docs job to run toosl/rstlint.py. Fix also the two minor warnings which causes the buildbot slave to fail.
* bpo-29521 Fix two minor documentation build warnings (#41)Jim DeLaHunt2017-02-131-3/+4
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Much of bpo-29521 was fixed in parallel with commit e7ffb99 . This cleans up the rest. Apply parallel change to Doc/make.bat to read "set SPHINXOPTS=-D latex_elements.papersize=" I don't have a Windows system on which to observe the warning, but it should be necessary. The warning: .../workspace/cpython_github/Doc/faq/windows.rst:303: WARNING: unknown option: -t In the Windows FAQ, `How do I keep editors from inserting tabs into my Python source?`, contained a reference to a Python -t option. In Python 2.x, this caused Python to issue warnings about lines with mixed spaces and tabs, but as of Python 3.6 it does nothing. Per discussion at http://bugs.python.org/issue29387, take their wording. Python [3] raises an IndentationError or TabError. Tabnanny is now a module.
