I think this makes sense. As far as I can tell, PDF builds are a relative rarity these days, and most people would rather not have to deal with virtualenv if they can avoid it. We should definitely emphasize native installs whenever that can work. I'm planning to go ahead and apply Mauro's sphinx-pre-install patches since they make things better, but then we should look at these tweaks. Thanks, jon
