Indeed. After I disabled preview-latex in my init.el and customized
`LaTeX-enable-toolbar' to nil in order to suppress loading tex-buf,
accessing `Command' menu causes that error.

I think that's the standard prescription.

That would be another reasonable solution, considering that ELPA
installation always enable preview-latex (if I remember correctly) which
in turn loads tex-buf for all LaTeX documents.

So both approaches are fine with me.
