+Ghostscript <= 9.27 is [[https://www.gnu.org/software/auctex/manual/preview-latex/No-images-are-displayed-with-gs-9_002e27-and-earlier.html][reported buggy]] and doesn't work with auctex's math
+previews. (You can check you ghostscript version with ~gs --version~.) Most
+package managers already have newer versions, but if not you might have to build
+gs from source.
