Done
I am seeing the following error in the CI,
[2025-10-27T11:43:34.116Z] CMake Error at /usr/share/cmake-3.28/Modules/FindPackageHandleStandardArgs.cmake:230 (message):
[2025-10-27T11:43:34.116Z] Could NOT find Doxygen (missing: DOXYGEN_EXECUTABLE)
Need to decide whether to set BUILD_DOCS=OFF by default, or keep current default and make sure CI runs in an environment where DOXYGEN_EXECUTABLE exists.
@bartekxk , @illsilin - may be helpful to have your input in this. Wider context is that I want to enable developers to do a build of docs in their local checkout.
