Hmm, interesting -- I don't know if there are guidelines for where to put TeX documentation. I guess the best is to put it both in the package %doc location and in /usr/share/texmf/doc as you suggest -- thanks for noticing this. Will update soon. > I don't know if there are guidelines for where to put TeX

I do not know if such explicit Fedora guidelines do exist either. If not then maybe this is an oversight? Only if you want documetation to be findable by 'texdoc', and 'texdoctk' too, then is should be somewhere where kpsewhich will list it. Check /usr/bin/texdoc shell script for how this is done. In other words something located in subdirectories of /usr/local/share/texmf/doc/ will work too without any changes to /usr/share/texmf/web2c/texmf.cnf where TEXDOCS is set. This is also where 'mktexlsr' will record documentation files.
Like I suggested symlinks in right places are entirely sufficient.
I also cannot tell if there are agreed upon procedures of maintaining /usr/share/texmf/texdoctk/texdoctk.dat. Unfortunately that seems to be monolithic although I am not sure about that without diving into a texdoctk code.
Sure conditionally adding a non-existing yet line or two by a package script is not an issue but updates to texlive-texmf will clobber that. Maybe some triggers could prevent this. Possible modifications to texdoctk to do some "includes" would likely be a better way. No idea who could/should coordinate that.
