bug#22807: 2016-01-31; TeX-view does not jump to correct place in PDF file, texlive 2015

[Uwe Brauer]

Hi

That looks bizarre. I am still using Kubuntu 10.04 which ships texlive
2009. Everything works fine, in my current setting TeX-view jumps to the
      correct place in the pdf file, when running pdflatex.

However I *also* installed in  (/usr/local/texlive)

Texlive 2015 and following the instructions found in
https://tex.stackexchange.com/questions/1092/how-to-install-vanilla-texlive-on-debian-or-ubuntu

I do

mkdir -p /opt
sudo ln -s /usr/local/texlive/2015/bin/* /opt/texbin
and then

In /etc/environment I
modify
PATH="/usr/local/sbin:/usr/local/bin:/usr/sbin:/usr/bin:/sbin:/bin:/usr/games:/usr/local/games"
to 
PATH="/opt/texbin:/usr/local/sbin:/usr/local/bin:/usr/sbin:/usr/bin:/sbin:/bin:/usr/games:/usr/local/games

So far so good, but when I now use auctex in GNU emacs with the same
setting, the pdflatex compiling is fine but
TeX-view only jumps to the beginning of the pdf file!!

This is rather annoying. What can I do?

Regards

Uwe Brauer
