Bug#570376: texdoc barfs if BROWSER has multiple colon-separated commands



Package: texlive-base
Version: 2009-7
Severity: normal

I try running the command "texdoc eqnarray" and I get the error
message:
sh: links:lynx: not found

This is because my BROWSER environment variable contains "links:lynx",
as allowed in the specification of the BROWSER variable.

So texdoc should parse this variable (and perhaps others), using the
first one available.
