Hi,

if I do
~>texdoc latex-first-aid
I get the following error:

..exlive/2026/texmf-dist/scripts/texdoc/texdoclib-view.tlu:24: attempt to index a nil value (local 'docfile')
stack traceback:
    ...exlive/2026/texmf-dist/scripts/texdoc/texdoclib-view.tlu:24: in upvalue 'view_doc'
    ...exlive/2026/texmf-dist/scripts/texdoc/texdoclib-view.tlu:334: in function 'texdoclib-view.deliver_results'
    ...texlive/2026/texmf-dist/scripts/texdoc/texdoclib-cli.tlu:187: in upvalue 'do_texdoc'

    /usr/local/texlive/2026/bin/x86_64-linux/texdoc:45: in main chunk

Thanks for having a look at that.
