Package: auctex
Version: 11.85-1
X-Debbugs-Cc: era+deb...@iki.fi
I am forwarding the following bug report from Ubuntu:
<https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/auctex/+bug/790212>
The actual package version in Ubuntu is 11.85.1ubuntu1.
Test case (see original description below for repro steps); save as
test.tex:
\documentclass{article}
\begin{document}
\emph{
\end{document}
When you hit C-c C-c LaTeX RET, emacs says "LaTeX errors in `*~/test
output'. Use C-c ` to display."
Then I hit C-c ` and I expect one buffer called *TeX Help* to be created
containing the "Missing } inserted" error, alongside the original
test.tex buffer.
But this doesn't happen: instead, two buffers are created: one called
*TeX Help*, and a read-only buffer called Debian. Both are empty, and
the minibuffer says: Search failed: "^l\\." These two buffers replace
the test.tex buffer.
The problem seems to be that TeX-next-error expects every error in the
log file to have a line number attached to it. But the error here is
! File ended while scanning use of \emph .
which doesn't generate a line number.
--- Original bug report ---
If I run emacs -q and load the following file, ~/test.tex:
\documentclass{beamer}
\begin{document}
\begin{frame}
$a_{b$
\end{frame}
\end{document}
and hit C-c C-c LaTeX RET, emacs says "LaTeX errors in `*~/test output'.
Use C-c ` to display."
Then I hit C-c ` and I expect one buffer called *TeX Help* to be created
containing the "Missing } inserted" error, alongside the original
test.tex buffer.
But this doesn't happen: instead, two buffers are created: one called
*TeX Help*, and a read-only buffer called Debian. Both are empty, and
the minibuffer says: Search failed: "^l\\." These two buffers replace
the test.tex buffer.
Incidentally, if I go to the new Debian buffer and hit C-x C-w, the
minibuffer says "Write file: ~/TeX Live 2009/", which I find rather
curious.
If I comment out the \begin{frame} and \end{frame} lines in test.tex,
then I do get the expected behaviour.

If this were a real .signature, it would suck less. Well, maybe not.
