Subject: bug#16734: Default value org-odt-data-dir (in Emacs) makes no sense
Date: Wed, 12 Feb 2014 20:59:55 -0500	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <0d8utf7ox0.fsf@fencepost.gnu.org> (raw)

Package: emacs,org-mode
Version: 24.3.50

This refers to the version of Org mode in Emacs trunk.

./src/emacs -Q -l ox-odt
C-h v org-odt-data-dir
  -> Its value is "/usr/share/emacs/etc/org"

This value is hard-coded (and autoloaded; why?) in org-version.el.
This value makes no sense.
For Emacs, it should be something based on data-directory.

This was pointed out before in some moderately lengthy discussion:

http://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/emacs-devel/2012-10/msg00002.html
http://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/emacs-devel/2012-10/msg00070.html

(In general, the setting of directory-related variables in ox-odt seems
rather over-engineered.)
