Hi I'll try this site before asking the developers mailing list. Please let me know if this is the wrong place for this sort of questions.

On my own git branch, after the last pull which happened after arch linux upgraded to sphinx-1.8.5 I hit this error on sage --docbuild refernce html even after a make doc-clean.

EDIT: this does not have to do with arch's sphinx, even after removing it and using the one shipped with Sage it still fails.

This looks like what's described in this ticket https://trac.sagemath.org/ticket/26451 but this is already applied in my branch

Try deleting /home/user/Documents/code/sage/sage/local/share/doc/sage/html/en/reference/references/_static and try again.

Tried that and fails again with a [Errno 2] No such file or directory: ...en/reference/objects.inv. It looks exactly as was reported in that trac. _static is a symlink to an nonexistent directory. A make doc-clean does remove the link. But it gets created during the run of sage --docbuild reference html

I'll add here the answer I got in sage-support mailing list: running 'make' before 'make clean-doc' solves the problem.
