Hi,

Making links in per-session dir ...
If 'mozilla-firefox' is already running, it is *not* restarted, and you
    must switch to its window.
Otherwise, be patient ...
   user  system elapsed 
  8.176   1.132  88.853 

It create the HTML manuals for each session or only a package index?

But, if is not possible to speed-up the system, I will make a coffee :))

Thanks
Ronaldo
