When trying to preview a document that makes use of the lastpage
package while having preamble caching activated, emacs shows:

---
error in process sentinel: preview-reraise-error: LaTeX found no preview images
error in process sentinel: LaTeX found no preview images
---

When commenting out the \usepackage{lastpage}, everything works fine.

When switching off preamble caching, there is no problem either.

Kind regards.

Could you post the contents of the run buffer (which you get with C-c
C-l) when that problem occurs? It is likely caused by the version
string of the package.

preview-latex has its own bug reporting commands and bug reporting
lists, by the way. While we will merge it into AUCTeX soon, and so
the lists will probably also be merged, the information that the bug
reporting commands include are quite different, so using the right
command can also save some headaches. Even if you decide for some
reason to send the resulting report to the AUCTeX list instead of the
preview-latex list (which I personally would not mind much, since I
have to moderate every post to the preview-latex bug list with a web
page with a password mechanism not working with the password manager,
and the stupid software then passes this to the preview-latex
developer list where I need to approve it again with a different
password. I'll probably kill that list some time or other).
