I just had a quick look to that page, not only it advises to override
the wrong dh sequence, but also it gives stupid advices for intersphinx:
"sphinx-build might try to access the Internet to fetch intersphinx
inventory files; http_proxy set to 127.0.0.1:9 will prevent that."
Instead of attempting circumvention of the effect of using intersphinx,
it's best to simply *DISABLE* intersphinx in the conf.py of the
documentation. Setting-up http_proxy / https_proxy to do that, really,
is the wrong way. Lots of my packages contain intersphinx disabling patches.
