The not-very-tasty solution I came up with was to put the following into
the local variables list at the foot of my file:
# org-export-latex-default-packages-alist: (("AUTO" "inputenc" t) ("T1"
"fontenc" t) ("" "fixltx2e" nil) ("" "graphicx" t) ("" "longtable" nil)
("" "float" nil) ("" "wrapfig" nil) ("" "soul" t) ("" "t1enc" t) (""
"textcomp" t) ("" "marvosym" t) ("" "amsmath" t) ("" "wasysym" t) (""
"latexsym" t) ("" "amssymb" t)
("colorlinks=true,pdfstartview=FitV,linkcolor=blue,citecolor=blue,urlcolor=blue"
"hyperref" nil) "\\tolerance=1000")
I put this in the file, rather than in my configuration, because it is
specific to the formatting of this file, and because I share this
document with others, who need to be able to export from it w/o having
to reconfigure their org-mode installations.
I figure that someone can probably suggest a solution that is nicer than
that!
Best,
