Hi all, differently from what it's said in section 1.3.2.1 of the manual, AUCTeX never suggests to run makeindex when needed. Does someone know how can we check whether we need to run makeindex? The .idx file is rewritten after every latex run, so it's useless to look to its modification time, and no warning is emitted by the compiler.
A possibility is to store the md5 hash of the .idx file and check whehter it's changed after running latex. md5 is pretty fast compared to other algorithms and I don't think this feature is security-wise. If I recall correctly, latexmk does the same check.
