Subject: Indentation bug in newest version of AUCTeX

Hello there,

I have the newest version of AUCTeX available on Melpa/Elpa/online,
which is 11.88.4. I just updated it yesterday; I'm not sure what version
I had before.

Before, running fill-paragraph on my various paragraphs would indent my
file like so: http://ix.io/hWy

Now, it's doing this: http://ix.io/hWz. Notice the lack of indentation
following the \item, and such. I haven't changed any of the LaTeX
variables. My LaTeX-indent-level is 2.

Thank you,

Peter Harpending

How do you fill your paragraphs?  Do you select all of them at once
and then issue M-q or do you do it one by one?  I can reproduce your
problem if I try to fill all the paragraphs together, but works as
expected when I fill just one paragraph (which is what I usually do).
I can reproduce this behavior also in AUCTeX 11.87, so it's not even
so new.

Bye,
Mosè

Another example:
Before this bug: http://ix.io/hYH
After this bug: http://ix.io/hYI

I should have mentioned, I'm on GNU Emacs 24.4.1 on Arch Linux.

> How do you fill your paragraphs?  Do you select all of them at once

I discovered this by running M-q on individual paragraphs, but I observe
the same behavior with LaTeX-fill-buffer.

*   I get similar behavior after uninstalling AUCTeX. The same issue
    occurs with \item's, but Emacs is no longer unindenting in other
    environments.
*   I get the same behavior after installing AUCTeX 11.88 manually.
*   I get the same behavior after installing AUCTeX 11.88 through the
    Arch Linux package system.
*   I get the same behavior after installing AUCTeX 11.87 manually.
*   I get the same behavior after installing AUCTeX 11.86 manually.

I would be inclined to think that this is an Emacs bug, but I haven't
updated Emacs since January 27, and this bug showed up yesterday (April
17).

However: 
I know this is not a problem with GNU Emacs, because I last updated that
in January, and this problem showed up yesterday after I updated my ELPA
packages.

The value of `fill-paragraph-function` is `LaTeX-fill-paragraph`, which
is an AUCTeX function. I'm not an expert on the code base, but, I think
LaTeX-fill-paragraph is forgetting to do its indentation job.

What happens if you call Emacs with

   emacs -debug-init

?  This kind of not-working features is what I remember seeing for
incomplete loads.

I assume you mean "emacs --debug-init"? 

Nothing of pops up. Emacs does its thing, and eventually the *scratch*
buffer materializes.

Yes.

Did you try without your AUCTeX configuration?  The filling you get
looks like you have added an entry '("enumerate" current-indentation) to
`LaTeX-indent-environment-list'.  It's possible that you had a broken
configuration before that didn't cause the issue because of an AUCTeX
bug which got fixed lately.

I commented out my LaTeX-mode-hook, and I got the same, undesired
result.


However, when I ran "emacs -q", not loading my ~/.emacs file, I got the
desired result.

So, it is apparently a problem with my emacs configuration.

My configuration can be found here:

https://github.com/pharpend/dotfiles

if anyone wants to help me find the problem

Oh, well, that's a huge config distributed along dozens of files.  By
searching for "TeX" or "LaTeX" I only found out that you're using
smartparens-latex...

Could you please point us to the actual file where you put your AUCTeX
configs, or are they all splattered across files, or do you really have
none as the search seems to suggest?

Closing because Peter found the problem, and it hasn't been an AUCTeX
one.
