Sphinx-1.0b compilation for python3.1

[Richard Mathar]

I am trying to install Sphinx-1.0b under a Python3 environment.
Does anyone have experience with that task?

cd *1.0b2

python3 setup.py build
  File "setup.py", line 50
    print 'ERROR: Sphinx requires at least Python 2.4 to run.'

So
../
2to3 -w Sphinx-1.0b2
.......
RefactoringTool: Warnings/messages while refactoring:
RefactoringTool: ### In file Sphinx-1.0b2/sphinx/writers/text.py ###
RefactoringTool: Line 393: cannot convert map(None, ...) with multiple arguments because map() now truncates to the shortest sequence

cd *1.0b2
python3 setup.py build

This script requires setuptools version 0.6c9 to run (even to display
help).  I will attempt to download it for you (from
http://pypi.python.org/packages/3.1/s/setuptools/), but
you may need to enable firewall access for this script first.
I will start the download in 15 seconds.

(Note: if this machine does not have network access, please obtain the file

   http://pypi.python.org/packages/3.1/s/setuptools/setuptools-0.6c9-py3.1.egg

and place it in this directory before rerunning this script.)

How do I move on from here?
