As root run: yelp-pregenerate -a This will convert all those gnome help xml files to html, so yelp doesn’t have to do it every time you access help. Keep in mind, if you uninstall the package, those html files are still in /usr/share/gnome/help/PACKAGENAME/LOCALE and will have to be removed by hand. Also, you will want to rerun the command with new versions of the package. Debian does not use yelp-pregenerate for you during install and remove scripts, so you have to yourself. It is worth it though, the speedup is huge! 16.
