There is no API. In GODI we install documentation in the <prefix>/doc tree, usually <prefix>/doc/<packagename>, but this is not strictly enforced, and there are some packages with deviating locations. I know that Debian prefers /usr/share/doc/<packagename>. Don't know for Fedora. In GODI you can list the files of a package with - godi_info -L packagename on older GODI's - godi_info -file-list packagename on newer GODI's You could look there for the "doc" directory. I don't know anything better.
