NAME

update-auctex-install - update AUCTeX installation.

SYNOPSIS

update-auctex-install [FLAVOR...]

DESCRIPTION

The update-auctex-install script updates AUCTeX installation.
It should be called after each major (La)TeX installation or upgrade.
If no arguments are specified, update-auctex-install caters to every supported Emacs flavor installed on the system; else it updates only the specified flavors, if they are installed.
On Debian GNU/Linux system update-auctex-install is not called weekly by a cron(8) driven mechanism, because it modifies files installed in the /usr/ hierarchy, and that would not be policy compliant. You may call it by hand, or have the maintainer of relevant packages add a call for it in their postinst package scripts.

BUGS

None known.

FILES

/usr/: the hierarchy containing AUCTeX installed files.

SEE ALSO

emacs(1), tex(1), latex(1).
