[O] Bug: ODT export creates invalid document if literal [8.0-pre (release_8.0-pre-58-g9f1765.dirty @ mixed installation! /Users/bernd.haug/Library/Application Support/Aquamacs Emacs/org/lisp/ and /Users/bernd.haug/Library/Application Support/Aquamacs Emacs/org/info/)]

[Bernd Haug]

I am exporting a document to ODT that contains the following text:

blah blah blah =blah <x> blah blah blah...=, blah blah blah
bla bla (bla =bla <x> bla bla bla...= blah). bla blah bla

When opening the document in LibreOffice 3.4, I get the following message:
Read-Error.
Format error discovered in the file in sub-document content.xml at
1837,86(row,col).

I unzipped the ODT file and looked to the named location in content.xml:
blah bla blah blah <text:span text:style-name="OrgCode">blah <x> bla
blah...</text:span>, blah bla blah bla bla
bla bla (bla <text:span text:style-name="OrgCode">blah <x> bla bla
bla...</text:span> blah). blah bla bla

Obviously, the <x> would have to be escaped in the XML output if it
should be presented as intended, but it is interpreted literally as
the == would advise, which causes corruption from the perspective of
LibreOffice.

I would suggest doing the escaping as it seems much more likely that
users want to see such content mono-spaced rather than insert literal
ODT markup.

Quick note on my config: The dirty source directory only contains the
changes from the Makefile-patch I just submitted which allows
installation to locations containing space characters in their path.
