hacked epdoc-generated api.tex doesn't compile

[guyer]

The hacked version of epydoc in utils/epydoc/ produces a line in the master api.tex file

\usepackage[index,pdftitle={Title},pdfcreator={epydoc 2.1}]{epydoc}

and epydoc.sty declares

\DeclareOption*{\PassOptionsToClass{\CurrentOption}{hyperref}}

intending to pass the pdftitle and pdfcreator options on to hyperref.

This does not work, as those options are declared by hyperref using keyval.sty. We need to do something similar or come up with some other way to generate these options. This is not an issue for our primary use of utils/epydoc/ as a way to generate the manuals, since we ignore api.tex in that case, but it does mean that the hacked epydoc can't be used on individual files and it will certainly need to be fixed before sending to Ed Loper.

The solution is to just put the hyperdoc import directly in the file. I'll incorporate this in my edits to epydoc 3

Switched to Sphinx with r3485 and r3494. This epydoc issue no longer applies.
