You can test it with AUCTeX, see test plans on http://overlays.gentoo.org/proj/emacs/wiki/test%20plans

The following should be added to DEPEND: virtual/latex-base || ( dev-texlive/texlive-texinfo app-text/tetex app-text/ptex ) Maybe it's time for a virtual/texinfo-tex for the above any-of-many dependency?
(In reply to comment #5) > Maybe it's time for a virtual/texinfo-tex for the above any-of-many dependency? or perhaps virtual/texi2dvi ? (texi2pdf or pdftexi2dvi seem to be only aliases for texi2dvi)

Created attachment 159333 [details] app-text:dvipng-1.11:20080702-160135.log [hppa] Again, the test phase reveals some things are missing or at least not where the test suite expects to find them.
Stable for HPPA.
virtual/texi2dvi added to DEPEND. Please go on with stabilisation.

Thomas, does it succeed when you have dev-texlive/texlive-fontsrecommended installed? Or do you still use teTeX?
Yes Christian, tests succeed with texlive-fontsrecommended installed.
Thanks for testing, added USE=test and please go on.
amd64 stable
(In reply to comment #18) > Thanks for testing, added USE=test and please go on. Shouldn't that dependency be something like: test? ( || ( dev-texlive/texlive-fontsrecommended app-text/tetex app-text/ptex ) ) The way you have it now it will cause blockers for tetex users.
(In reply to comment #20) > The way you have it now it will cause blockers for tetex users. Fixed.
ppc64 stable last arch CC'd -> mark bug as FIXED
