Up till the last release I've done the uploads for some time.

Hm, I haven't had trouble with the command and I've been using Debian all along. But perhaps they changed the default shell since the last AUCTeX release? Did the command fail in your case? -- Ralf _______________________________________________ auctex-devel mailing list auctex-devel@gnu.org https://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/auctex-devel
