Thanks for the clarification. Do I get it right that the current Debian
12 (released this year) is shipping a 4 years old version of AUCTeX[1]?

Yes, this is then expected since you didn't install AUCTeX from ELPA.
My suggestion presumed that. You have 2 choices now:
• Activate AUCTeX the way you do it from your init file after 'emacs
-Q' (I have no idea how one is supposed to do it on Debian)
• You uninstall AUCTeX via apt and install it from ELPA as described
here[2]. Then you can try the instruction I sent.

Yes, this is then expected. What you did doesn't match your AUCTeX
installation.
Best, Arash
