texdoc schedule

[Lars Madsen]

it should of course have been 2019-07-31


I was interesting, since I ran texdoc before I updated using tlmgr, and it gave me nothing of interest. But did give me an english manual after the update

before:

texdoc schedule -l
 1 /opt/texlive/2019/texmf-dist/doc/bibtex/alpha-persian/alpha-persian-l.userguide.pdf
   = Package documentation (English)
 2 /opt/texlive/2019/texmf-dist/doc/latex/pdfpages/dummy-l.pdf

after

texdoc -l schedule
 1 /opt/texlive/2019/texmf-dist/doc/latex/schedule/schedule.pdf
   = Package documentation
 2 /opt/texlive/2019/texmf-dist/doc/latex/schedule/README.md
   = Readme

I'm quite sure that the last time I updated was within the last two weeks

  Not doubting you here, but:

  is remarkable for at least two reasons ;-)

  Anyway, perhaps I can shed (pun intended) some light on Patrick’s
problem, since I can reproduce it: I don’t actually have a package by
the name of schedule on my system (a stock net-installed TeX Live from
early July), and running “texdoc schedule” I get the documentation for
the package *schule*, in German.  Since presumably there’s no English
version, I don’t think locales would help: in the absence of a package
schedule, schule is cleary the best match for texdoc, and that’s the
document it’s going to display, in whatever language is available.

        Best,

                Arthur
