How to install Sphinx 1.3b2 on Mac OS Yosemite for python 3.4

I have installed Python 3.4 on Mac for developmental purposes. So when I use which python on my terminal I get the below /usr/bin/python

And when I do which python3.4, I get /usr/local/bin/python3.4.

Now I have installed Sphinx1.3b2 and on doing which sphinx-build, i get /usr/local/bin/sphinx-build

The problems are

  1. I have installed many packages for Python3.4 like elasticsearch, Jinja2 etc. which are not in Python2.7 (my system's python)

  2. Make html always uses python 2.7 and I get the following error when i try to make the html for my project;

sphinx-build -b html -d _build/doctrees   . _build/html
    Running Sphinx v1.3b2
    making output directory...

Build finished. The HTML pages are in _build/html.

As you can see the sphinx-build is not able to load the python 3.4 packages.

Can anyone help me in resolving this?

FYI, I have already tried changing the sphinx-build file with the below;

#!/usr/bin/python3.4 and /usr/local/bin/python3.4. none works

Here is how I resolved it;

which sphinx-build

/usr/local/bin/sphinx-build

Now did a vim /usr/local/bin/sphinx-build (or use any text editor) and the below is what I changed. It was earlier Sphinx==1.3b2 and python2.7

Changed the Sphinx==1.3b2 to 1.2.3 (the installed version of the Sphinx (this was installed usin brew.) Changed the python to python3.4

#!/usr/local/bin/python3.4
# EASY-INSTALL-ENTRY-SCRIPT: 'Sphinx==1.3b2','console_scripts','sphinx-build'
__requires__ = 'Sphinx==1.2.3'
import sys
from pkg_resources import load_entry_point

if __name__ == '__main__':
    sys.exit(
        load_entry_point('Sphinx==1.2.3', 'console_scripts', 'sphinx-build')()
    )
