When trying to reinstall AUCTeX, I spotted an error in the messages. Turns
out I was hit by the following problem

https://emacs.stackexchange.com/questions/13965/installing-auctex-from-package-manager-scan-error


and AUCTeX wasn't even properly installed...

Now everything is working fine. Thanks everybody for their input!
