I found a github page which implies that docutils.parsers.rst.Directive was added 12 years ago (!) so we're probably safe to rely on it: https://github.com/docutils-mirror/docutils/commit/9649abee47b4ce4db51be1d90fcb1fb500fa78b3 Again, I'm no pythonista, so I may have muddled this. -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-doc" in the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
