Frank Küster has rewritten texdoc in luatex and now it really works much better than the original one.
Good to here that!
Well, searching the whole disk with find when we have ls-R databases was a strange approach, no? The next Debian packages of luatex (as soon as you release a new beta ;-) will ship the lua version of texdoc instead of the default texlive texdoc.
Furthermore, a call to securly create a tmp dir would be nice, too.
I agree, and will happily add it. mkstemp() doesn't help though, as it only works for files. I'll have to borrow or write a version of BSD's mkdtemp, somehow.
The is probably the best idea, since relying on a lib function which
might not exist is a problem.
