bug#71902: tex-site.el is not included in auctex 13.3
Dear maintainers of auctex, The current commit of auctex seemed to have packed tex-site.el.in instead of tex-site.el, which makes auctex unusable. I look forward to a quick fix. Best regards, Yizhen ___ bug-auctex mailing list bug-auctex@gnu.org https://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/bug-auctex

I presume you've downloaded the 13.3 tarball, right? You still have to install the package once you unpack it. This is from the INSTALL file distributed in the tarball: The remainder of this section is about installing AUCTeX from a release tarball or from a checkout of the AUCTeX repository. Installing AUCTeX should be simple: merely ‘./configure’, ‘make’, and ‘make install’ for a standard site-wide installation (most other installations can be done by specifying a ‘--prefix=...’ option). OTOH, we recommend to install AUCTeX from ELPA where possible. Again, from the README: The modern and strongly recommended way of installing AUCTeX is by using the Emacs package manager integrated in Emacs 24 and greater (ELPA). Simply do ‘M-x list-packages ’, mark the auctex package for installation with ‘i’, and hit ‘x’ to execute the installation procedure. That's all. I don't see a bug here.

bug#71363: 14.0.5; AUCTeX 14.05 and LaTeX Mode

That's very unusual > situation; :-) Yes, that's a possible scenario I had in my mind. This is at least my observation over the last couple of years that AUCTeX's take-over of various major modes was not appreciated by everybody. > I'd say that people who have such strange preference should be > prepared for their difficulty and be able to deal with it by > themselves. I don't use this feature, so I don't want to be against it too much, so if you think it is a good addition, please go ahead and install it. I know where to forward the complaints once they arrive ;-) Best, Arash ___ bug-auctex mailing list bug-auctex@gnu.org https://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/bug-auctex

Yes, that sounds reasonable, but OTOH, we had also a lot of complaints that AUCTeX took over latex-mode. So for me, introducing new names was also a chance to cut off with that old habit. But as I said in my other message, I don't want to block a feature I don't use. If you and Keita think we should do this, let's do it.

Hi WANG, > WANG Yizhen writes: > Dear maintainers of auctex, > The current commit of auctex seemed to have packed tex-site.el.in > instead of tex-site.el, which makes auctex unusable. I look forward to > a quick fix. This isn't a bug; tex-site.el is generated from tex-site.el.in under standard installation process, namely configure&make. Follow the instruction included in the distribution or put at https://www.gnu.org/software/auctex/manual/auctex/Installation.html Maybe a simpler solution is to use ELPA release. That's described in the above document, too.
