Hi all,

it seems that the documentation and code for `org-latex-pdf-process' are
out of sync: Where the documentation mentions "%bib" the code expects
"%bibtex".  At least, that's how i understand it.

I resolved that confusing situation by making "%bib" and "%bibtex"
equally accepted, without touching the documentation.  Thus, old
configurations work again ("%bib") as well as workarounds (using
"%bibtex") which might have gotten employed somewhere.

Cheers, Tara

Subject: [PATCH] ox-latex.el: fix interpretation of org-latex-pdf-process

* ox-latex.el (org-latex-export-to-pdf):  The documentation for
`org-latex-pdf-process' states that "%bib" will be expanded into the
current binding of `org-latex-bibtex-compiler'.  However, the
`org-latex-export-to-pdf', where the expansion takes place, expects
"%bibtex" instead.  This fix will accept "%bib" as well as "%bibtex"
as markers for `org-latex-bib-compiler'.

Thanks for catching that.  It seems [1] it's an old regression from
f6187deca (ox-latex: Small refactor, 2015-09-13).

That sounds like a good approach to me.  Applied (13e98e2a1), adding a
TINYCHANGE cookie and a reference to the above commit in the message.

I also tweaked this comment a bit because, with the above change, the
elements before and after "respectively" no longer lined up.
