I see two possibilities: * Use hardcoded /usr/share/texmf-tetex or /usr/share/texmf-texlive in texdoctk in tetex and texlive packages, respectively. * make texdoctk support a array of directories to search and populate that tree by parsing kpsewhich's output properly. The first approach would be quite simple, but it would hide documentation installed from 'the other' TeX distribution. The second approach would be more general, but also requires some changes to texdoctk. I had hoped to find some time to work on this during the long train rides I made recently, but this did not happen. :-( cheerio ralf
