Re: docutils-py310 does not build

Argggh…
So it turns out that docutils v0.14 is out of date and the current version 0.21.2 does not support earlier python versions.

So version 0.18.1 will work with python 2.7 to 3.8
version 0.21.2 will work with python versions 3.9 and 3.10 (3.10 being my target that I need)
The two versions use different build process (setup.py and bootstrap)

So I broke up docutils into two files docutils-0181-py.info <http://docutils-0181-py.info/> and docutils-py.info

In testing docutils-py.info <http://docutils-py.info/> it passes all tests and validates, but if I use the section of code that converts the text document to html it crashes.  Not being a python expert I am somewhat of a loss.  AFAICT, this goes to the main document and creates html from the text documents (and then later does the same thing recursively to the docs directory.  This is in the install script portion of the package.

I think the install/preinstall/preremove is trying to create html versions of the documentation, python versioned copies of the tools and then linking to an unversioned tool.  But I may be wrong.

InstallScript: <<
    #!/bin/sh -ev
    for i in *.txt ; do
        htmldoc=${i%%txt}html
        echo "Making $htmldoc"
        PYTHONPATH=.:docutils %p/bin/python%type_raw[python] tools/rst2html.py $i $htmldoc
    done

    cd docs
    for i in `find . -name '*.txt'` ; do
        destdir="%i/share/doc/%n/html/"${i%%/*}
        htmldoc=${i%%txt}html
        echo "Making $htmldoc"
        PYTHONPATH=..:../docutils/utils %p/bin/python%type_raw[python] ../tools/rst2html.py $i $htmldoc
        mkdir -p "$destdir"
        cp $htmldoc $destdir
    done

    cd %i/bin
    for i in rst2* rstpep2html.py; do
        mv $i ${i%%.py}-%type_raw[python].py
    done
    cd %i
    PYTHONPATH=%p/share/bootstrap-modules-python%type_pkg[python] %p/bin/python%type_raw[python] -m installer --destdir %d dist/*.whl

-----------------------

The very first command fails on the first operation processing the BUGS.txt file with the following error.  

Making BUGS.html
Fatal Python error: init_sys_streams: can't initialize sys standard streams
Python runtime state: core initialized
AttributeError: module 'io' has no attribute 'open'

Current thread 0x00007ff84dfd8dc0 (most recent call first):
  <no Python frame>

-----------
Not being a python expert I am confused.  It seems that something fundamental is missing to not be able to initialize the standard streams.
