[Jython-users] Cannot Install Sphinx1.3.3 Into Jython2.7.0

[David C. <dav...@gm...>]

As the subject line indicates, I am unable to install Sphinx1.3.3 into
Jython2.7.0.  I am highly motivated to get this fixed.  So, even if I can't
get a complete solution, I welcome warmly even mere 'leads' on how to fix
this myself.  I am on bended knee before the Jython Wizards.

My troubles seem related to this issue:

* http://bugs.jython.org/issue2349

Here are some facts about the machine:

$ uname -a
Linux mystery 3.2.0-77-generic #112-Ubuntu SMP Tue Feb 10 15:22:22 UTC 2015
x86_64 x86_64 x86_64 GNU/Linux

And, here is the procedure I am using, along with (most of) the output.

* Notice the IOException that occurs during the installation of Jython.
* Also notice t he AttributeError that occurs just before the installation
of Sphinx terminates

Here we go:

$ export JAVA_HOME=/usr/local/jdk1.8.0_66
$ export PATH=$JAVA_HOME/bin:$PATH
$ java -jar jython-installer-2.7.0.jar -s -d jython2.7.0
