Bugs
None known.
Description
The update-auctex-elisp script updates the automatically generated TeX and LaTeX data used by AUCTeX and
stored in /var/lib/auctex/<FLAVOR>, where <FLAVOR> stands for any valid installed Emacs flavor.
It is called automatically by the Debian auctex package (via dpkg triggers) whenever new (La)TeX macros
and style files are installed in the TeX and METAFONT system trees; beside, it is called on GNU AUCTeX
and GNU Emacs flavor upgrades and installations, to ensure up to date parsing. It may and should also be
called manually after additions to the local TeX and METAFONT system tree.
If no arguments are specified, update-auctex-elisp caters to every supported GNU Emacs flavor installed
on the system; else it updates only the specified flavors, if they are installed.
Exit Status
The update-auctex-elisp command returns 0 on success and a positive integer on errors.
Files
