Public bug reported:
Binary package hint: auctex
This bug is similar (maybe a copy) to #524961 (however, at least
explicitly I never refer to the package hyperref).
Anyhow, the bug is as follows:
latex preview fails to show equations, it refers to a ghostscript error:
"gs -dOutputFile\=\(_region_.prv/tmp27896eDb/pr23-6.png\) -q -dSAFER -dNOPAUSE
-DNOPLATFONTS -dPrinted -dTextAlphaBits\=4 -dGraphicsAlphaBits\=4

228517 setfileposition 653()/SubFileDecode filter cvx<<>>preview-do
Error: /undefined in H.S"
However, latex-preview succeeds to show inline equations, that is LaTeX
mathematical formulae in the form $$.
But it does fail to show the groups \begin{equation} \end{equation}
This is true at least for the class article, revtex4-1, and so on. This
is a really annoying bug, becuase many people using Linux/Ubuntu use
everyday emacs/LaTeX.
I tried to --purge and reinstall TeX, ghostscript, with no success,
evidently.
