When I add "-Denable_docs=true" to my DPDK 20.11 build commandline I
get a build error:
FAILED: doc/guides/html
/usr/bin/python3.6 ../buildtools/call-sphinx-build.py /bin/sphinx-build

raise ValueError("invalid version number '%s'" % vstring)

Is this a known issue?
Cheers,

I guess you use an old sphinx version, like maybe sphinx on RHEL7 ?
Example on my rhel7:
$ sphinx-build --version
Sphinx v1.1.3
[...]
* with -a, write all files.
* with filenames, write these.
Afaics, we require sphinx >= 1.7 for building the documentation.
