Hi,
I just noticed that tlmgr and AucTeX install preview.sty (et al.) in two different branches of the TeXLive tree (in Debian, but I guess it might be the same in other distros).
I had done a tlmgr update of TeXLive a few days ago (24 Feb), and yesterday I updated AucTeX (from 11.85 to 11.86).
tlmgr had installed preview.sty 11.86 (et al.) in
/usr/local/texlive/2009/texmf-dist/tex/latex/preview/
whereas AucTeX installed it in
/usr/local/texlive/2009/texmf/tex/latex/preview/
kpsewhich shows that the one used is
/usr/local/texlive/2009/texmf/tex/latex/preview/preview.sty
that is, the one installed by AucTeX; both are, as said, v11.86. I think it would be better if both installers look into the same branch to do the updates.
Best,
Axel
