This is a request for building "sphinx" against EPEL7, as this is needed for the COPR project. I'm willing to assist in the testing and maintaining of this package

Sphinx provides rpms for EPEL. They can be found here: http://sphinxsearch.com/downloads/release/
External RPMs are no-go IMO. We need to have self-standing repositories, that's what the bug is about (and also the parent bug). I'm afraid this is invalid bug however, because I see some python-*sphinx* packages available in epel-7-x86_64 chroot.

My comment was intended for people who were running EPEL and wanted to install Sphinx and come across this bug. It's an option.
Got it, thanks Gerald.
Is the python-sphinx package the same as sphinx???
Ah, OK -- those are different things.. though I was not aware the need for 'sphinx'. Is that really needed, or is that just unused dependency for copr sources?
Both the copr-backend and the copr-backend-doc package builds fine without the sphinx package... I'll create a PR for leaving it out for EPEL7..
Turns out sphinx package is not needed for copr: https://pagure.io/copr/copr/pull-request/40
