Bonjour Jean-Jacques,

sorry for not replying so long.  I assume you still have this problem?

Oh, I should have known that this does not give much additional
information.  In case you still get the error, please do the following:

Open the file /usr/lib/emacsen-common/packages/install/auctex in a text
editor.  It starts with a couple of comment lines, then comes some
code.  The 8th line of code is a single line surrounded by empty lines,
which reads:

FLAVOR=${1}

Please insert the following statement in the empty line before it:

set -x

After this, execute 

dpkg --reconfigure auctex 2>&1 | tee auctex-install.lg

and send us the file auctex-install.lg

Thank you in advance,
Frank
