Hi Vladimir,

did you read the README.md of `use-package'?  It actually has an
example about AUCTeX:
https://github.com/jwiegley/use-package/blob/caa92f1d64fc25480551757d854b4b49981dfa6b/README.md#package-installation

> If you need to install a different package from the one named by use-package, you can specify it like this:

    (use-package tex
      :ensure auctex)

Bye,
Mosè
