Yes. However, I don't think it is a serious issue for usual (personal) ELPA installation because users can easily uninstall AUCTeX in that case. >> Should we arrange the main branch so that (unload-feature 'tex-site) >> works for site-wide ELPA AUCTeX installation as documented?

I think the cleanest solution is to add '(auctex nil)' to `package-load-list'. This doesn't register unused autloads for the first place. (I haven't tested yet, but I suppose that the code needs to be in early init file, right?) However, I don't have strong preference about it. >> Maybe to have both (unload-feature 'autex-autoloads') and >> (unload-feature 'tex-site) ?) > This seems to be easiest way; I suspect the > (unload-feature '<pkg-name>-autoloads) > applies to every package installed from ELPA? It seems so: ,----[ (elisp) Packaging Basics ] | Emacs then searches every Lisp file in the content directory for | autoload magic comments (*note Autoload::).
