[AUCTeX-devel] bug: customize-group needs (require 'tex)

[Thomas Baumann]

Hi,

I noticed this recently:

emacs -Q
(load-library 'auctex)
M-x customize-group AUCTeX

Debugger entered--Lisp error: (wrong-type-argument char-or-string-p nil)
  custom-group-value-create((custom-group :documentation-shown t :custom-state 
unknown :tag "Auctex" :value AUCTeX :buttons nil :sample-overlay #<overlay from 
367 to 381 in *Customize Group: Auctex*>))
  widget-apply((custom-group :documentation-shown t :custom-state unknown :tag 
"Auctex" :value AUCTeX :buttons nil :sample-overlay #<overlay from 367 to 381 
in *Customize Group: Auctex*>) :value-create)
  widget-default-create((custom-group :documentation-shown t :custom-state 
unknown :tag "Auctex" :value AUCTeX :buttons nil :sample-overlay #<overlay from 
367 to 381 in *Customize Group: Auctex*>))
  widget-apply((custom-group :documentation-shown t :custom-state unknown :tag 
"Auctex" :value AUCTeX :buttons nil :sample-overlay #<overlay from 367 to 381 
in *Customize Group: Auctex*>) :create)
  widget-create(custom-group :documentation-shown t :custom-state unknown :tag 
"Auctex" :value AUCTeX)
  #[(entry) "address@hidden@!È@&       ‡" [entry widget-create 
:documentation-shown t :custom-state unknown :tag custom-unlispify-tag-name 
:value] 10]((AUCTeX custom-group))
  mapcar(#[(entry) "address@hidden@!È@&        ‡" [entry widget-create 
:documentation-shown t :custom-state unknown :tag custom-unlispify-tag-name 
:value] 10] ((AUCTeX custom-group)))
  custom-buffer-create-internal(((AUCTeX custom-group)) " for group Auctex")
  custom-buffer-create(((AUCTeX custom-group)) "*Customize Group: Auctex*" " 
for group Auctex")
  customize-group("AUCTeX")
  call-interactively(customize-group t nil)
  execute-extended-command(nil)
  call-interactively(execute-extended-command nil nil)


(require 'tex) in .emacs solves the problem.

AUCTeX is from CVS, emacs 23 as of 2008-04-16 (because of the VCS-error
David reported already)
