Sorry Filipe!
This is a bug in the 4.1.1 release. A "make clean" wipes out the
documentation files, though it should not.
To fix, unpack the tarball again. This will restore the built
documentation and make will succeed again without trying to build the
documentation.
I hope to get this bug fixed before the next release...
Thanks,
Ed
