The only thing in
/usr/share/doc/passivetex-1.12/
on RedHat 8.0, is an index.html which seems to be about the same as
the official PassiveTeX home page.

These reside in /usr/share/texmf/web2c/ on RedHat 8.0, which makes
them less inviting for editing.
Ie. my thoughts went like this:
- If it's not in /etc/ it doesn't look like it's meant to be tampered
with...?
- What's texmf? "TeX MetaFont"? What does that have to do with
PassiveTeX?
- What does web2c have to do with this? Would I need to recompile
TeX for this to work?
Which in sum made me decide not to try to tamper with anything. :-)
