Sphinx crashes when tempdir is on another drive on Windows

[Chilipp]

Problem description

When the build directory for the help is on another drive than the library, psyplot crashes

Expected Output

Very likely due to the same reason as in spyder-ide/spyder#6549, sphinx cannot handle it when the temporary build directory is on another drive on Windows. This affects sphinx=2.2.0. It is fixed by downgrading to sphinx=1.7.5.

I meet the same error as yours

Thanks for the info @dkl78167816! I did not check again because I was very busy the last few weeks and personally I am not using Windows. But I can have a look into it, soon.

What version of Sphinx are you using? Does it help to downgrade to 1.7.5?

just tested this on windows and it seems to not be an issue anymore
