hi, when use make gettext in my docs, "startswith" error caused:

Exception occurred:

return s.startswith('/')
AttributeError: StringList instance has no attribute 'startswith'

I guess it is caused by sphinx-build instead of sphinx-intl. So you should file the issue to https://github.com/sphinx-doc/sphinx/issues.

BTW, It seems your sphinx version is not a current maintained version. Please try earlier version of sphinx.
And/or, please let me know a full traceback that is recorded in the saved log file: /var/folders/hq/x053v2n52fbbkyd99d_46ywh0000gn/T/sphinx-err-wgSdEl.log

I guess it is caused by sphinx-build instead of sphinx-intl

But my make html could work well . It causes error when I use make gettext with sphinx-intl

thanks

It seems that this issue was reported by sphinx-doc/sphinx#3510. So now I close this issue. Thanks.
