[petsc-dev] How to generate doc locally ?

[Karl Rupp]

Hi Franck,

that looks fine. There are also subtargets 'alldoc1', 'alldoc2', etc. 
available if you need finer granularity.

Can you please send us the complete output? The .cit file is an 
intermediate result file, so the source of the error is at an earlier stage.

Best regards,
