12.1.2; TeX-complete-symbol in math mode results in error for unique completion |

The use of 'TeX-complete-symbol' ("C-M-i") in math mode results in error
when
the completion is unique.
Steps to reproduce:
#+begin_src bash
emacs -Q
#+end_src
Setup minimal environment:
M-x package-initialize RET
M-x toggle-debug-on-error RET
M-x LaTeX-mode RET
Then type:
$$ "C-b" \Right "C-M-i"
The completion is actually executed, but triggers an error, whose
backtrace is:
#+begin_verbatim
Debugger entered--Lisp error: (wrong-type-argument stringp (if
TeX-insert-braces "{}"))
regexp-quote((if TeX-insert-braces "{}"))
TeX-complete-symbol()
funcall-interactively(TeX-complete-symbol)
call-interactively(TeX-complete-symbol nil nil)
command-execute(TeX-complete-symbol)
#+end_verbatim
The error is only triggered if the completion case is unique. If there are
multiple candidates, the "*Completions*" buffer will popup normally.
The issue affects, as far as I can tell, any symbol in 'LaTeX-math-default'
(probably 'LaTeX-math-list' too, but mine is nil) in the same
circumstances.
Best,
Gustavo Barros

Hi Gustavo,
thanks for your report. This issue was already reported here[1] and
was resolved with this patch[2]. I hope you can wait for next AUCTeX
release.
Best, Arash
P.S. I suggest you don't use $$ for displayed math with LaTeX.
