Description Erik Quaeghebeur 2011-02-10 20:38:53 UTC

(La)TeX editors such as Kile provide a handy quick route to the necessary documentation in case it can be found in a single texmf doc subtree (often /usr/share/texmf/doc/). This is not the case, e.g., for outside-of-texlive packages such as pgf and g-ctan packages.

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
Try to use Kile's Documentation Browser for e.g., pgf docs

Actual Results:  
Could not find "

Expected Results:  
pgf docs opening

Thanks for the suggestion, let's have g-ctan maintainer and TeX team take a look
