Re: strange behavior for export -- Solved

[Erik Butz <erik.butz@googlemail.com>]

Hi,

after some fiddling and looking at list-load-path-shadows (where I did
not find org-latex at all), I included
(require 'org-latex)
into my .emacs file, which solved the problem. This solution somewhat
puzzles me though, since I would have expected that org-latex is
loaded by default. But maybe I am missing something.

At any rate, thanks for the help.

Cheers,

Eri K
