The glossary cache is not build in khelpcenter 5, so the glossary doesn't work. Going to the glossary tab, the message "Building glossary cache" is displayed on the status bar and stays there forever. Running the meinproc5 command manually shows that the problem is that the output dir ~/.cache/khelpcenter/help/ does not exist. If I create this dir manually the glossary cache is generated correctly. Reproducible: Always
Confirmed with khelpcenter 5.4.1 in a VM with Kubuntu Wily 15.10 Creating the dir ~/.cache/khelpcenter/help/ manually fixes this issue in this VM
