OK, let's build the manpages offline.

Well, at the beginning I thought that there was a choice to be made
between loading the buildds, having a heavy diff.gz, or finding an
in-between solution with an arch:all package (taking granted that in the
future buildds will not build arch:all packages when they have been
produced by faster buildds).
Since nobody objected against having many manpages in the diff.gz, we
will build them before source package upload.
Many thanks everybody for your input !
Have a nice weekend,
