[Bug-AUCTeX] The right installation steps of auctex+ghostscript for MacBook Pro(preview works well now)

[Linghui Zeng]

Hi, everyone

After I tried a lot methods to solve my problem,  I found that the previous installation of ghostscript was wrong. There is a autogen.sh file. So we should not execute ./configure, but ./autogen.sh. Then everything is OK!

In conclusion, the correct installation steps are as follows:

1. install the latest version'' MacTex.pkg'' in /Applications

2. install Emacs-24.2.dmg  in /Applications

3. install Auctex-11.86   

first, go to the Auctex directory, configure with the command:

 ./configure --with-emacs=/Applications/Emacs.app/Contents/MacOS/Emacs    --with-lispdir=/Applications/Emacs.app/Contents/Resources/site-lisp  --with-texmf-dir=/usr/local/texlive/texmf-local

second, execute:     make;    sudo make install

4. install ghostscript-9.06:  ./autogen.sh; make ; sudo make install.

That's all. Thank you for your attention!

Best wishes,

Linghui Zeng

I think you need auctex build from cvs-sources.
