---------------------------+------------------
 The rtems-docs requires the Sphinx contribution extension for bibtex to
 build.

 A configure check should be added to see if the extension is installed and
 an error raised or the documentation conditionally built.

 It is not clear to me if bibtex needs Tex Alive. Requiring Tex on all
 hosts to build the documentation is a regression so the extension will
 need to be removed or a fall back position taken where degraded quality
 documentation in HTML is created.
