I tried touching the file now. Reinstalling tetex-doc doesn't fix the bug
I still get the missing file / segfault message when I try to run it.

When all of my tetex-* files are installed that file is there, and
contains HTML.

I tried running dpkg -i --force-confmiss on the tetex-doc file in
/var/cache/apt/archives and that still doesn't make it work.
