Hi Jobst and All,

this seems to be an issue of Texdoc, so you can report it to texdoc at tug.org
or even better to open an issue on our GitHub repository:

	https://github.com/TeX-Live/texdoc/

Talking about the issue, it didn't reproduce in my environment (macOS, TL 2018,
everything up-to-dated):

	$ texdoc -s url
	 1 /usr/local/texlive/2018/texmf-dist/doc/latex/url/url.pdf
	   = Package documentation
	 2 /usr/local/texlive/2018/texmf-dist/doc/latex/urcls/URletter-DEMO.pdf
	   = Example of usage (letter)
	 3 /usr/local/texlive/2018/texmf-dist/doc/latex/breakurl/breakurl.pdf
	   = Package documentation
	 4 /usr/local/texlive/2018/texmf-dist/doc/bibtex/urlbst/urlbst.pdf
	   = Package documentation (PDF format)
	 5 /usr/local/texlive/2018/texmf-dist/doc/latex/xurl/xurl.pdf
	   = Package documentation
	 6 /usr/local/texlive/2018/texmf-dist/doc/bibtex/urlbst/urlbst.html
	   = Package documentation (HTML format)
	 7 /usr/local/texlive/2018/texmf-dist/doc/bibtex/urlbst/README
	   = Package Readme
	 8 /usr/local/texlive/2018/texmf-dist/doc/latex/breakurl/README
	   = Package README
	 9 /usr/local/texlive/2018/texmf-dist/doc/latex/aurl/README.md
	   = Readme
	10 /usr/local/texlive/2018/texmf-dist/doc/latex/xurl/README.md
	   = Readme
	11 /usr/local/texlive/2018/texmf-dist/doc/man/man1/biburl2doi.man1.pdf
	12 /usr/local/texlive/2018/texmf-dist/doc/latex/xurl/Changes
	13 /usr/local/texlive/2018/texmf-dist/doc/bibtex/urlbst/VERSION
	14 /usr/local/texlive/2018/texmf-dist/doc/latex/unamth-template/Latex/Classes/urlbst
	15 /usr/local/texlive/2018/texmf-dist/doc/generic/tex-virtual-academy-pl/latex2e/macro/url.html

To investigate more about your case, we need the output with --debug option:

	$ texdoc --debug -s url

As a side note, if you give "*.sty" or "*.dtx" as a keyword, Texdoc will
search the source file instead of documentation. Thus,

	$ texdoc -s url.sty
	 1 /usr/local/texlive/2018/texmf-dist/tex/latex/url/url.sty

is completely following our specification.

Best,
Takuto
