There's no need to do this in LaTeX-mode-hook, it should be
enough to
have
(add-to-list 'TeX-view-program-selection '((output-pdf
"Zathura")))
in your init file.
Ah, but that depends on TeX-view-program-selection already being
defined. You'd have to put this into an eval-after-load
incantation or
similar for this to work reliably.
My apologies, you are of course right. I do this sort of stuff in
a use-package declaration in the :config section, which is
executed after the package is loaded, so I tend to forget about
eval-after-load.
Doing it in LaTeX-mode-hook means it's executed each time you
open a
LaTeX file, which is harmless but unnecessary.
But the usual way to do such stuff.
Really? I mean, true, I see it a lot in (mostly older) config
snippets Google spits up, but I thought it was generally
discouraged to use a hook if there's no need for it, because it's
not always as harmless as this example. (In fact, I've run into
problems with it myself from time to time.)
