Hi,

If you are talking about this:
https://github.com/mitya57/sphinxcontrib-programoutput/commit/83502056efa0aaed2a5edbd1f44a28d9d5d4815d

then IMO, that's a wrong way to fix things. The package now will only
work with Sphinx 1.3, and not with 1.2. Which means that backports to
Jessie will not be possible.

Do you know how we can simply test for the presence of the basic or the
default theme? It'd be nicer to do something like this (and better than
stupidly checking the sphinx version).

Cheers,
