Uggg ... right ... xdg-open is NOT blocking... argg, I guess I have
to go back to see otherwise it will not work.

That is unfortunately not an option on Debian, if someone is using
KDE or any other environment. evince might not be installed, nor okular,
etc. xdg-open tries to work around that that people can set their own
plus system defaults etc etc, so that is the reason I switched
to xdg-open some time ago. And since all of the texlive docs are
not compressed, there is no problem.

I will have to think about it, but don't see a good solution for now
but trying to get an update to pgf and latex-beamer into the archive
that ships uncompressed pdfs, and for latex-beamer also adds a link.

Best wishes
