Dear Sphinx developers,

The 1.4.2 tarball as released by Takeshi has *lots* of build artefacts in
tests/build/* which should not be there and increase the tarball size:

$ ls -la Sphinx-*.tar.gz
-rw-r--r-- 1 dmitry dmitry 4259820 Apr 24 05:19 Sphinx-1.4.1.tar.gz
-rw-r--r-- 1 dmitry dmitry 29959227 Mai 30 14:30 Sphinx-1.4.2.tar.gz

It's almost 30 Mb compared to 4 Mb in Sphinx 1.4.1!

$ find tests/build/ | wc -l
3344

That is very inconvenient for us the packagers. Is there any chance you can
reupload a new tarball and/or a new release?

(Also, a tarball signed by a key that was created on the release day looks
somewhat suspicious. Some signature on a key would increase the trust level
a lot :))

Hi Dmitry,

Thank you for letting me know. Sorry for inconvenience you.
I will bump a new version within a days.
(PyPI disallows to upload the package as same filename. so it is hard to reupload)

Thanks,

Takeshi KOMIYA

Thanks a lot! The new version (1.4.3) is much better.
