I admit the entry in the FAQ now is somewhat redundant since AUCTeX
behaves like many other packages available from ELPA.  The only reason I
suggested this change is that deleting it would cause people come back
and ask where it went.

But please feel free to delete that subsection if there is no added
value behind it.
