There are actually two bugs:

- if texdoctk cannot find a file it looks for, it tries to find it in
  other directories.  This might make sense with names that indicate the
  content, but fails with README (user.dvi and manual.pdf are candidates
  for a similar error).  Should be special-cased, but I don't have a
  patch right now (actually I find texdoctk hard to read - which might
  be more due to my ignorance of Perl/Tk than to Perl's unreadability or
  Thomas' Ruedas coding style).

This bug report is about this part.
