Hi all,
I'm trying to install AucTeX from source but I remain stuck at the
./configure
step...
It complains that I don't have LaTeX installed:

You must install
LaTeX for preview to work.
configure:
error: ./configure failed for preview
Which I don't understand because LaTeX seems to be working
normally, for example when I run latex sample2e.tex, I get:
This is pdfTeX,
Version 3.1415926-2.4-1.40.13 (TeX Live 2012)
restricted
\write18 enabled.
entering
extended mode
(/usr/local/texlive/2012/texmf-dist/tex/latex/base/sample2e.tex
LaTeX2e
<2011/06/27>
[...]
Output written
on sample2e.dvi (3 pages, 7484 bytes).
Transcript
written on sample2e.log.
The point is I previously installed TeXLive and AucTeX from the
Ubuntu repositories. I then found out that the TeXLive version was
the 2009 one, so I manually installed TeXLive 2012 and removed
AucTeX.
I'm trying to install AucTeX from source because if I install it
from the repositories, it ask for some TeXLive 2009 dependencies I
removed.
I run Ubuntu 12.04 and Emacs 23.3.1.
Would anyone know what the problem is?
Thanks in advance for your help.
