[SciPy-Dev] [GSOC 2018 Project Thread]: Rotation formalism in 3 dimensions

[Aditya Bharti]

Regarding building the documentation, I was able to figure out that I
needed to install sphinx separately. The HACKING.rst.txt file only mentions
Numpy Cython and pytest as dependencies.
I was able to get the make command running with `make html PYVER=3.5`, but
I'm getting the follwing error:


> Could not import extension numpydoc (exception: cannot import name
> 'Directive')

I'm sure I have the extension installed, since it's listed in the sphinx
directory. Any idea what the problem is?
