Hi!
It seems that texdoc uses the command "(see %s)". This behavior comes
from the /usr/share/texmf/texdoc.cnf file. So the first thing to check
is whether see (which is more or less an alias of run-mailcap) uses xpdf
or evince. On my laptop, it used xpdf by default (written in file
/etc/mailcap).

Install the texlive-base and texlive-latex-base-doc packages (along with
its dependencies). Then, at a command prompt, type:
$ texdoc clsguide
This will report the following error message (assuming xpdf hasn't been
installed):
sh: xpdf: not found
The expected result is that a PDF document
