Package: texlive-base
Version: 2009-11
Severity: normal

texdoc and texdoctk both seem to fail to open gzip'ed PDF files.
I only have two relevant files in my installed TeX packages:

/usr/share/doc/texmf/latex-xcolor/xcolor.pdf.gz
/usr/share/doc/texmf/pgf/pgfmanual.pdf.gz

When I try, eg, 'texdoc pgfmanual', I get the following error message
from okular (which I have configured as PDF viewer):

Could not open file:///tmp/texdoc.i6ZXZa/pgfmanual.pdf

Indeed, when I check, there is no directory /tmp/texdoc.i6ZXZa .
Perhaps texdoc tries to gunzip the file and deletes it before okular
reads it?  (Okular can read a .pdf.gz file, but I don't expect texdoc
to know that.)

(Note that gzip'ing this file save 1.2MB.)

This issue seems to be solved. We still have problems, when opening
documents in the GNOME environment; this is tracked in #591781.

Closing the issue, as the submitter is not contactable any more.
