This doesn't occur for me. I could install auctex-12.2.5 from ELPA on
windows10, emacs 26.3.

Is this problem specific to auctex or common for other ELPA packages for you?

I suspect installing from ELPA doesn't work here at all.

One possible reason for that is that the gpg key bundled with your emacs
26.1 has expired. If this is the case, the prescription at
https://elpa.gnu.org/packages/gnu-elpa-keyring-update.html
, followed by installing `gnu-elpa-keyring-update' package from ELPA,
might help.

Hmm, sorry, then I have no idea about this problem. Maybe asking on
help-gnu-emacs list would be better.

OK

Actually the only reason I wanted to install auctex from ELPA is that I
am curious whether it is possible to reproduce the problem

https://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/auctex/2020-09/msg00017.html

with the recent version of auctex.

Thank you very much for your quick responses.

Best regards

Janusz

FYI:

You were right, but fixing it doesn't seem easy:

It seems that it was fixed in emacs 26.3:
https://emacs.stackexchange.com/questions/58424/is-elpa-broken
https://debbugs.gnu.org/cgi/bugreport.cgi?bug=34341

So the promblem would go away if you can upgrade emacs to version 26.3
or 27.1.
