Re: [AUCTeX] 11.90.2.2017-07-25; TeX-search-files-by-type: No TeX trees available; configure ‘TeX-tree-roots’ error

Dear all,

Although I sent this message yesterday, it seems that it got lost in the
sea of the Internet.  I'm resending, so please bear with me if anyone
receives this message twice.

The reason might be my recent commit in the git repository.  Could you
please answer some questions in order to figure out the problem?
1. Have you been experiencing that problem since long before?  Or did
   that begin to occur recently?
2. What are the values of `TeX-kpathsea-path-delimiter',
   `TeX-tree-roots', `path-separator' and `system-type' in the buffer
   where the error occurs?
3. On cygwin terminal, what does the command
kpsewhich --expand-path='$TEXMF'
   output?

Regards,
Ikumi Keita
