I guess the right fix would be do to something similar to what's in
the patch below.

There's a catch, though: as sphinxsetup hmargin/vmargin was added
only on Sphinx version 1.5.3, the enclosed patch won't adjust the
margins for versions 1.5.0 to 1.5.2. While I didn't test, I bet it
will just ignore the keys, showing some warning.


[PATCH] Docs: Fix breakage with Sphinx 1.5 and upper
    
Commit 85c21e5c3ee7 (docs-rst: better adjust margins and font size) added a
\usepackage{geometry} that conflicts with another inclusion deep within the
dependencies with newer versions of Sphinx, causing the the PDF build to fail
with a "conflicting parameters" error.
    
Detect the Sphinx version, using sphinxsetup for Sphinx versions 1.5 and
upper.
