RHEL 7.x and clone distros are shipped with Sphinx 1.1.x, with is incompatible with Kernel ReST markups. So, on those systems, the only alternative is to install it via a Python virtual environment. While seeking for "pip" on CentOS 7.3, I noticed that it is not really needed, as python-virtualenv has its version packaged there already. So, remove this from the list of requirements for all distributions. With regards to PDF, we need at least texlive-tabulary extension, but that is not shipped there (at least on CentOS). So, disable PDF packages as a whole. Please notice, however, that texlive + amsmath is needed for ReST to properly handle ReST ".. math::" tags. Yet, Sphinx fall back to display the LaTeX math expressions as-is, if such extension is not available. So, let's just disable all texlive packages as a whole.

Linux kernel ============ This file was moved to Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst Please notice that there are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or ``make pdfdocs``. There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory, several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation. See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file. Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
