You can do it in a pbuilder chroot, from an xterm or similar: # pbuilder login #or whatever command brings you in a clean sid environment # apt-get -y install tetex-bin perl-tk # texdocrc will not be installed # export HOME=/root # pbuilder doesn't seem to set this correct # export DISPLAY=:0.0 outside the chroot: mount --bind /tmp/ /var/cache/pbuilder/build/16537/tmp/ cp ~frank/.Xauthority /var/cache/pbuilder/build/16537/root/ (or course, replace the number and username by the strings appropriate on your system). Now you should be able to bring up an X window, e.g. try with xdvi. If that works, try texdoctk: # texdoctk Couldn't open system-wide default config file texdocrc.
