Now it worked! The RELEASE-NOTES-pt_BR directory was created and every 
content in it is well. Executing only "make" will create a html-nochunks 
version and a targzipped version of the directory too. All fine. What 
was your errors?

I noted some other erros, and I'll send here just for documenting. The 
first was many warnings with this message:

    No localization exists for "po/pt_br" or "po/pt". Using default "en".
    (...)

But everything is created fine. This warnings appear when 
creating/writing the html files. This happens with zh_CN too. Maybe 
because of a case sensitivity issue?

I don't think that this will cause damages, as documents were all fine 
after the build, but I really don't have idea :)

That's ok, if I can help in anything, just ask and I'll be glad to.

Not yet, I didn't know about this package :)
