No, this is not a typo, and I don't know which file Alain is talking
about. Both in tetex-2.0 and in the current beta, texdoctk uses
texdocrc.default, and we patch it to use textdocrc. No "tk" in the name
of the configuration file. And there isn't a file with that name around,
anyway. 

Alain, what is the output of

which texdoctk 
grep 'my $TeXDocRcDefaults' `which texdoctk`

If the upgrade went cleanly, /usr/share/texmf/texdoctk is a symlink to
/etc/texdoctk, and there are both files. Alain, what is the output of

ls -ld /usr/share/texmf/texdoctk
dpkg -S texdoctk

We have replaced it. Alain, from which place did you take the
texdoctkrc.default file you copied?
