[Ben Finney]

Package: sphinx-common
Version: 1.4.5-1
Severity: normal

The ‘dh_sphinxdoc’ command is failing to detect Sphinx-generated
documentation:

$ dh_sphinxdoc doc/_build/html
dh_sphinxdoc: Sphinx documentation not found at doc/_build/html/
=====

My (Perl-illiterate) reading of the ‘/usr/bin/dh_sphinxdoc’ source
leads me to infer that the “found Sphinx documentation” check should
be satisfied by the presence of both the ‘searchindex.js’ and
‘search.html’ files. So I don't understand the failure, above.
