  I hope I will get enough time around this summer to switch
to a database based mechanism ... This will hopefully help to
solve this asa side effect.
  Problem is that one need to complete the work to be able to
generate the cross reference resources. Takes me a bit more
than 6 hours on rpmfind :-\ . This doesn't scale anymore and I
need to fix it for good ...
