        <pre wrap="">Dear folks,
    I came across an error while making a code:
 makefile:7: *** missing separator. Stop.
    This happens after I was tying to update the petsc-dev with some error
message; the configure.log, error.log and make.log are attached. I've already
sent it to petsc-maint list. Is this makefile error related to the fail
update?

You don't have the latest petsc-dev. Can you pull the latest petsc-dev and retry?
