`TeX-clean-default-intermediate-suffixes`
just provides the default value for

is why it's not a defcustom. (I assume that setting it doesn't
have any effect
because its value is not checked when cleaning out files. The
value of
`LaTeX-clean-intermediate-suffixes` is used for that.
Thanks. I checked `LaTeX-clean-intermediate-suffixes` and its
original value is
("\\.aux" "\\.bbl" "\\.bcf" "\\.blg" "\\.brf" "\\.dvi" "\\.ent"
"\\.fdb_latexmk" "\\.fls" "\\.fmt" "\\.fot" "\\.glo" "\\.gls"
"\\.synctex\\.gz" "\\.idx" "\\.ilg" "\\.ind" "\\.lof" "\\.log"
"\\.lot"
"\\.nav" "\\.out" "\\.rel" "\\.rip" "\\.snm" "\\.tags" "\\.toc"
"\\.url"
"\\.vrb" "\\.run\\.xml" "\\.acn" "\\.acr" "\\.alg" "\\.glg"
"\\.ist")
which is my list, appended with ("\\.acn" "\\.acr" "\\.alg"
"\\.glg" "\\.ist")
as it should be from latex.el at (defcustom
LaTeX-clean-intermediate-suffixes...
at line 6061.
But the actual value is
("Notes\\.bib" "\\.tdo" "\\.aux" "\\.bbl" "\\.blg" "\\.brf"
"\\.fot"
"\\.glo" "\\.gls" "\\.idx" "\\.ilg" "\\.ind" "\\.lof" "\\.log"
"\\.lot"
"\\.nav" "\\.out" "\\.snm" "\\.toc" "\\.url" "\\.synctex\\.gz"
"\\.bcf"
"\\.run\\.xml" "\\.fls" "-blx\\.bib" "\\.acn" "\\.acr" "\\.alg"
"\\.glg"
"\\.ist" "\\.fdb_latexmk" "\\.aux.bak" "\\.fls")
So it seems `LaTeX-clean-intermediate-suffixes` *does* pick up
my setq for
`TeX-clean-default-intermediate-suffixes`, but then something
overrides it. I
never use any "Notes.bib" file, so I don't think it's something
in my config.
Do you have any suggestions what it might be?
Have you checked your config? Perhaps you set it a long time ago
and forgot about it? (Happens to me more often than I care to
admit. ;-) Or perhaps you're using some Emacs starter kit or a
config from somewhere else? Or perhaps a file-local or dir-local
variable?
My advice would be to remove the `setq` from your config,
customize `LaTeX-clean-intermediate-suffixes` to the value you
want it to have and see what happens.
