在Cygwin中从Emacs（w32版本）中的MELPA编译auctex时出现奇怪的行为

Question

I tried to compile the auctex from Emacs MELPA. The version is: 11.88.4

When I first open a .tex file, compile AUCTEX, and change to "TeX-latex-mode", Emacs will work properly, the menu bar also change to latex state.

However, when I close Emacs, restart Emacs again and open a .tex file, Emacs will give:

Debugger entered--Lisp error: (error "Autoloading failed to define function TeX-latex-mode")

And auctex will not work...

It seems the problem is in autoloading certain state when initialize the auctex for a tex file.

Any help?

Problem Solved! My mistake.

I modularised my init.el and separated the LaTeX settings to latex.el , which conflict with the latex.el in auctex.

I renamed the file to latex_settings and everyting works fine. (A small warning that no docstring for 'tex-start-shell', but that's fine.)
