UPDATE: auctex 11.83 to 11.85 (and update variants)

[shreevatsa.public@…]

Hi,

I updated the auctex Portfile to 11.85, removed the obsolete emacs_devel variant, and added an emacs_app variant and a mactex variant. I also removed a couple of configure args that had no effect.

Feedback?

Could this be assigned to maintainer? It has been a week...

worked great for me, but I had to install it with -f to overwrite texlive's version of preview-latex, and after installation had to run "sudo mktexlsr" to make preview-latex work in emacs.

maybe in the messages at the end of installation, one should also add a comment about adding "(load "preview-latex.el" nil t t)" to .emacs in order to make preview-latex work. took me a while to figure that one out, as in other (non-macports) installations i've had, preview-latex was loaded automatically.

forgot to mention that i changed the configure arguments to

configure.args  --with-lispdir=${prefix}/share/emacs/site-lisp \
                --with-auto-dir=${prefix}/share/emacs/site-lisp/auctex/auto \
                --with-texmf-dir=${prefix}/share/texmf-dist

while i was trying to get preview-latex working. not sure if this is necessary, and probably only valid if one has texlive_texmf-full installed, if i understand things correctly.

The emacs_app variant should still install lisp into ${prefix}. Only the dependency needs to change. The emacs_app port will load lisp from ${prefix}.

I see that was already noted in #14344 anyway ... this particular ticket should be marked a duplicate of the older ticket.

A diff would make easier to see what is actually being changed here.
