I suppose you are referring to these statements[1]: ,---- | Already in version 11.81 the way to activate AUCTeX changed substantially. This should now be done with (load "auctex.el" nil t t) instead of the former (require 'tex-site) `---- They mean that the _users_ aren't expected to load _explicitly_ tex-site.el in their init file ~/.emacs.d/init.el and alikes. Actually, the system init file ~/.emacs.d/elpa/auctex-x.y.z/auctex-autoloads.el , generated at ELPA AUCTeX installation, is designed to have (require 'tex-site) because it's madatory for sane operation of AUCTeX. It's there on purpose of the developpers of AUCTeX. Therefore, it *must* exist in package-quickstart.el when you enable `package-quickstart'. You said that ,---- | When Emacs starts: | | 1. (featurep 'tex-site) ==t `---- in your first report[2]. I suppose that this means that your emacs loads tex-site.el via package-quickstart.el as expected and something unexpected broke the setting prepared in that tex-site.el. The preparation is done through adding some entries to `major-mode-remap-alist', thus it's important to know its value and the value of the related variable `major-mode-remap-defaults'.
