>Description:
auctex really doesn't care what distribution of TeX you use, but the
package is hardwired to teTeX. Thus it's impossible to install
auctex for use with teTeX2.
>How-To-Repeat:
Install teTeX2.
Install auctex.
See auctex try to install teTeX.
>Fix:
Perhaps we need a "mk/tex.mk" to sort this out, a la "mk/emacs.mk"?
