Bug#421633: texlive-base-bin: texdoctk uses non-free, unavailable viewers
Package: texlive-base-bin
Version: 2007-5
Severity: normal
The following excerpt from /etc/texmf/texdoctk/texdocrc.defaults is not
what I would expect on a Debian system:
,----
| # PDF handling
| PDF_VIEWER=acroread
| PDFPS_CONV=acroread
| PDFPS_OPTS=-toPostScript -pairs
|
| # HTML handling
| HTML_VIEWER=netscape
`----
Naturally, neither acroread nor netscape are available on my system.
Sensible defaults on Debian would probably xpdf and x-www-browser,
respectively.
