.. option:: linear_approximation
Solves the linearized version of the perfect foresight
- model. The model must be stationary. Only available with option
+ model. The model must be stationary and a steady state
+ needs to be provided. Linearization is conducted about the
+ last defined steady state, which can derive from ``initval``,
+ ``endval`` or a subsequent ``steady``. Only available with option
``stack_solve_algo==0`` or ``stack_solve_algo==7``.
