I see no such commit in maint or master branch. The error that you report is not something I remember to have seen in the past. Can you not switch to 7.9.* versions? You can install the latest version via M-x list-packages RET. Follow the ELPA link from Org homepage: http://orgmode.org/, http://orgmode.org/elpa.html. For exporting to pdf, you can specify a value of "pdf" at M-x customize-variable RET org-export-odt-preferred-output-format RET or while visiting Org file do, M-x add-file-local-variable RET org-export-odt-preferred-output-format RET "pdf" RET and revisit (C-x C-v) that file. or You can follow the bind suggestion by Nicolas here: http://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/emacs-orgmode/2012-09/msg00039.html (Note that Nicolas' suggestion has a typo) --
