With Ubuntu 16.04 (and presumably Debian distros of the same age), the instructions for setting up a python virtual environment should do so with the python 3 interpreter. On these older distros, the default python (and virtualenv command) might be python2 based. Some of the packages that sphinx relies on are now only available for python3. If you don't specify the python3 interpreter for the virtualenv, you get errors when doing the pip installs for various packages Fix this by adding '-p python3' to the virtualenv recommendation line.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
