- Subject: texdoctk does not find any documentation

Package: tetex-bin
Version: 3.0-23
Severity: normal
*** Please type your report below this line ***
I start texdoctk. I select "Fundamentals/general references". Then I select
the first line "User's guide" and click on "View". The following message
appears: ERROR usrguide.dvi not found cancelling.
There seems to be nothing special about User's guide, if I select any
document in any category, I receive a "not found" error. (I have not tried
them all only some of them randomly.)
Other facts:
1) The documentations are present, e.g. usrguide.dvi is here:
/usr/share/texmf-tetex/doc/latex/base/usrguide.dvi.gz
I can view it with "texdoc usruide" (and also other documentation).
2) In texdoctk: clicking on settings, the paths in the upcoming window:
Distribution documentation root path(s): /usr/share/texmf/doc
Local documentation root path: /usr/local/share/texmf/doc
I miss the following from the distribution paths:
/usr/share/texmf-tetex/doc
/usr/share/texmf-texlive/doc
I do not understand why these are missing.
/usr/share/texmf-tetex/texdoctk/texdocrc says
# root of doc directory (from $TEXMFMAIN and $TEXMFDIST)
TEXDOCPATH=doc
kpsexpand reports
$TEXMFMAIN to be /usr/share/texmf
$TEXMFDIST to be /usr/share/texmf-{texlive,tetex}
BTW, the man page of texdoctk refers to a system wide configuration file
($TEXMFMAIN)/texdoctk/texdocrc.defaults
but this does not exist. I have $TEXMFMAIN/texdoctk/texdocrc instead.
Also, the man page refers to both $HOMETEXMF and $TEXMFHOME. Is this
intentional?

* Hardcode the two possible TEXMFDIST paths in texdoctk. This makes it
work again if tetex-doc and one texlive-doc-* package are installed at
the same time. Thanks to Braun Gabor <braung@renyi.hu> for reporting
