the problem we (ie Jody and myself) saw before was older versions
of sphinx choking the "%" in "scale: 50 %". This is something
different..

so it is running that not the 0.4.2 that comes with Lenny.
FWIW, sphinx 0.6.3 and 0.6.6 are available for Lenny from
the backports.org debian repositories. Ubuntu/Lucid shipped with
version 0.6.4.

I wonder if sphynx changed the syntax on us or if it's a bug in
the bleeding edge version? or...?

I'll look into a user-space parallel of sphinx 0.6.. mmmph
