The first three patches here address some issues with the script which detects the requirements for running Sphinx, making it a smarter and running it all the times, in order to allow recommending version updates. The 4th patch adds "-jauto" by default, if Sphinx version supports it (e. g. version 1.7 or upper). The final patch changes the recommendation to use at least Sphinx version 1.7.9, as discussed at linux-doc ML.
