When I upgraded from teTex to TeXlive, I could not find anymore some
documentation with texdoctk.

It seems that some lines are missing
in  /usr/share/texmf-texlive/texdoctk/texdoctk.dat pointing to the
documentation

I have found that there are lines missing for :
/usr/share/doc/texlive-doc/latex/koma-script/scrguien.pdf (koma script manual
in English)

/usr/share/doc/texlive-doc/latex/jurabib/docs/english/jbendoc.pdf
/usr/share/doc/texlive-bibtex-extra/latex/jurabib/docs/german/jbgerdoc.pdf

But I guess, there are other missing packages that I don't use.

Thanks for the smooth transition from teTeX to TeXLive.

Cheers,
Charles

Dear TeX Live people, hi Thomas,

I investigated this and found out that texdoctk.dat has not changed
between TL 2005 and TL 2007, but there are considerable changes between
teTeX 3.0 and TL: Both deletions and addition.

Some of them might be renamings, some correspond to material which has
been dropped from TeX Live, but some others I cannot explain.  There are
164 deletions and 204 additions, the diff starts with:

So there are probably false positives, but what about abstract, accents,
acronym, aeguill?

The filelists were created with

cut -d ';' -f 3 texdoctk/texdoctk.dat | \
sed -e '/^\(#\|@\)/ d;s@.*/@@;s@[.]\(dvi\|pdf\)@@' | \
sort -u > ../texdoctk.dat.allfiles

I do not know of any attempt to ever sync texdoctk.dat between TL and
teTeX, so it is not surprising there are differences in every direction.

If you or anyone would like to maintain that file, please, go ahead and
do so.  I don't plan to spend time on it.

Best,
Karl
