Bug 988978

It doesn't appear to install anything at all really:

[asinha@ankur  ~]$ rpm -ql texlive-texdoc-bin

The links point to non existent files. Is this package missing a requires?

The 


texlive-texdoc-bin package needs to require the texlive-texdoc package. This package provides the files that the symlinks point to:

[asinha@ankur  ~]$ rpm -ql texlive-texdoc
/usr/share/doc/texlive-texdoc-svn29764.0

[asinha@ankur  ~]$ ls -lash /usr/bin/texdoc*
0 lrwxrwxrwx. 1 root root 55 Sep  2 11:27 /usr/bin/texdoc -> /usr/share/texlive/texmf-dist/scripts/texdoc/texdoc.tlu

I looked at the spec: texlive-texdoc requires texlive-texdoc-bin, so making texlive-texdoc-bin require texlive-texdoc will cause a cyclic dependency. 

http://pkgs.fedoraproject.org/cgit/texlive.git/tree/texlive.spec#n51821

Not sure how to resolve this. Drop the 'bin' subpackage?

Thanks,
Ankur

Yikes!

I missed texdoctk completely. This link is bad and should indeed point to 
/usr/share/texlive/texmf-dist/scripts/texdoctk/texdoctk.pl

Updated summary to cover both issues.

Another missing requires:

The perl script requires perl-Tk to be installed:

[asinha@ankur  report(master *)]$ /usr/share/texlive/texmf-dist/scripts/texdoctk/texdoctk.pl beamer
Can't locate Tk.pm in @INC (@INC contains: /usr/local/lib64/perl5 /usr/local/share/perl5 /usr/lib64/perl5/vendor_perl /usr/share/perl5/vendor_perl /usr/lib64/perl5 /usr/share/perl5 .) at /usr/share/texlive/texmf-dist/scripts/texdoctk/texdoctk.pl line 15.
BEGIN failed--compilation aborted at /usr/share/texlive/texmf-dist/scripts/texdoctk/texdoctk.pl line 15.

sudo yum install perl-Tk fixes it.

Sorry for the sudden flood of comments. Didn't expect to run into successive issues this quickly. 

Warm regards,
Ankur

Still a bad symlink?
