LaTeX export not possible when case-fold-search is set to nil

LaTeX export not possible when case-fold-search is set to nil

[Alex Speed Kjeldsen]

I use emacs 23 and org-mode from the git repository. I think there is
a bug related to the variable case-fold-search. When it is set to nil,
which it is in my .emacs, I cannot export to LaTeX. If I do not set it
to nil, everything works. Is there a way to fix this?

PS: This presumable bug is also present in the latest stable release.

Best regards
Alex

Well, the obvious fix would be to not set this variable to nil :-)

Hi Alex,

I cannot reproduce this, and you give me very little information to  
figure out what might be going wrong.  Please use M-x org-submit-bug- 
report
to produce a list showing your configuration, and please include a  
small test file that shows the problem, and also describe what "Cannot  
export to LaTeX" actually means.  Maybe you can produce a backtrace if  
there is an error?

Loooong way to go for a good bug report :-)

Hi again,

Thanks for your fast reply.

The configuration returned by org-submit-bug-report is this:

Emacs  : GNU Emacs 23.1.50.1 (x86_64-pc-linux-gnu, GTK+ Version 2.18.0)
 of 2009-09-27 on crested, modified by Debian
Package: Org-mode version 6.32trans

current state:
==============
(setq
 org-after-todo-state-change-hook '(org-clock-out-if-current)
 org-export-preprocess-hook '(org-export-blocks-preprocess)
 org-tab-first-hook '(org-hide-block-toggle-maybe)
 org-src-mode-hook '(org-src-mode-configure-edit-buffer)
 org-confirm-shell-link-function 'yes-or-no-p
 org-agenda-before-write-hook '(org-agenda-add-entry-text)
 org-cycle-hook '(org-cycle-hide-archived-subtrees
org-cycle-hide-drawers org-cycle-show-empty-lines
                  org-optimize-window-after-visibility-change)
 org-mode-hook '(#[nil "\300\301\302\303\304$\207" [org-add-hook
change-major-mode-hook org-show-block-all append local] 5])
 org-confirm-elisp-link-function 'yes-or-no-p
 org-occur-hook '(org-first-headline-recenter)
 org-from-is-user-regexp "\\<Alex Speed Kjeldsen\\>"
 )


The content of the file test1.org file is simply these three lines:

* This is a test
** Here comes a section
** Her comes another one

When I try to use M-x org-export-as-latex, nothing happens apart from
the mouse cursor turning in to a spinning wheel, and I have to hot C-g
to escape. A tex buffer is then created with the name test1.tex and
with the following content:

%%
%% test1.tex
%%
%% Made by Alex Speed Kjeldsen
%% Login   <ask@ask-laptop>
%%
%% Started on  Wed Nov 11 13:27:16 2009 Alex Speed Kjeldsen
%% Last update Wed Nov 11 13:27:16 2009 Alex Speed Kjeldsen
%%

If I check *Messages*, I get the following information:

Exporting to LaTeX...
Starting new Ispell process [dansk] ...
Automatic display of crossref information was turned on
Applying style hooks... done
Quit

Hi Alex,

thanks.

Could you please:

1. Load uncompiled code with

    C-u C-c C-x !

2. Turn on debug on quit in the options menu

3. Run until emacs hangs

4. Wait 2 seconds

5. Press C-g

6. Send me the backtrace buffer that will pop up.

Thanks.

- Carsten
