Re: [AUCTeX] auctex Digest, Vol 77, Issue 9

Unfortunately, no. Here is an additional link to a discussion about the problem w.r.t. to Okular: https://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=274294 . But no solution there either (updating to the latest version of Okular doesn't help).

I've asked about this in a variety of places, and have yet to find any solution or workaround. 

It puts one in a difficult situation: it's hard to update or install new TeX packages without using TeXlive 2011, but TeXlive 2011's generation of synctex files doesn't  allow for forward search with any viewer that I know of for Linux. I hadn't realised how useful forward search is until it stopped working.

Ben,

has there been any usefull answer on your search? I rely heavily on synctex
and will not upgrade to texlive 2011 until this issue is solved.

Thank you for your good deal of trouble,

Alexander
