Ah, I see.  So I guess you have no root privileges on that system so
that you could simply uninstall that package?  Or ask your friendly
admin to do that for you explaining the problems the distro package has?

Hm, AUCTeX alone has not so many files.  So I guess you also installed
other packages.

Sure, then we might see which one failed and if it was an auctex file.
