It's the alternatives mechanism that openSUSE uses. I have no idea why
they felt the need to employ it for Sphinx, but they did, so we need to
work with that kind of configuration. Meaning, really, I think we have
to just invoke sphinx-build directly rather than trying to control which
version of Python it may ultimately get.
