doc-view (for OpenDocument files) uses the below mentioned work around.
The fix can be ported to `org-odt.el' and `ox-odt.el'.

The converted PDF is put into the current cache directory, and it
is named like ODF with the extension turned to pdf."

;; LibreOffice instance, in which case it returns success without
;; actually doing anything. See LibreOffice bug
;; https://bugs.freedesktop.org/show_bug.cgi?id=37531. A workaround
