Greetings.
I am using org mode 8.2.1.
1. First the question: when I export the org file below as Beamer (C-c
C-e l O), I get an empty outline. How do I fix this?
2. Then the bug. If you remove the comment character in the second
slide, Beamer export gives an error, while a regular LaTeX export
(C-c C-e l o) produced output. It seems that Beamer export can not
handle links with equality characters (=). (I guess the "%3D" is the
coding for '='. If you edit the link with "C-c C-l", you can see the
equality sign.)

The export process doesn't unencode hexified links, so the problem
doesn't come from the equality sign but from the percent one.
This problem was discussed recently (look for a thread named "Encoding
Problem in export?" on the ML), but, IIRC, no solution was found.

The same thing: an empty outline.
To be exact, I ran "emacs -q" and the executed the following commands
before loading the org-file, in order to use the newest version of org:
(setq load-path (cons "/home/jarmo/addons/emacs-packages/org/lisp" load-path))
(require 'org)
(require 'ox-beamer)
Maybe this is related to TeX version? Mine is
TeX 3.1415926 (TeX Live 2013)

Ok.

I will read through the thread, but at the moment I don't understand why
the Beamer export behaves differently than the regular LaTeX export.

Seems to work fine for me with the older version that I was running,
but I upgraded to latest and I get the beamer presentation I expected.

My TeX says
This is TeX, Version 3.1415926 (TeX Live 2009/Debian)
but I don't know whether that explains it.

Export to Latex produces
\section{And this is the second slide}
\label{sec-2}
\begin{itemize}
\item with one commented item\ldots{}
\item \ldots{} containing a \href{https://www.google.com/#q%3Dorg%2Bmode}{link} that will amaze the reader
\end{itemize}
Export to beamer produces
\begin{frame}[label=sec-2]{And this is the second slide}
\begin{itemize}
\item with one commented item\ldots{}
\item \ldots{} containing a \href{https://www.google.com/#q%3Dorg%2Bmode}{link} that will amaze the reader
\end{itemize}
\end{frame}
so the link is treated exactly the same in the two cases. Probably the
enclosing environment (\section vs \frame) is what causes the different
behavior.

I think I posed my initial question in a way that begs for a
misunderstanding. When I export the file as Beamer, I get a title page,
two slides _and_ an empty outline. Maybe someone interpreted my initial
question to mean that I get _only_ an empty outline. I would like for
the titles of the slides to appear in the outline. How do I achieve
this?
(I know that I can get rid of the outline by setting toc:nil.)

Ok, thanks.

Ah, indeed I misunderstood.
AFAIK, toc-entries are created by \section{...} and the beamer exporter
does not add \section headers - there might be a way to do that but I
don't know it.
There also might be a beamer way of having frames add their title to the
TOC without \section help, but again I don't know whether that's
possible.

Set '#OPTIONS: H:2', then top level headlines become sections (and are
listed in the table of contents) and second-level headlines become the
frames. For example:
#+TITLE: Beamer test
#+OPTIONS: ':nil *:t -:t ::t <:t H:2 \n:nil ^:t arch:headline
#+OPTIONS: author:t c:nil creator:comment d:(not LOGBOOK) date:t e:t
#+OPTIONS: email:nil f:t inline:t num:t p:nil pri:nil prop:nil stat:t
#+OPTIONS: tags:t tasks:t tex:t timestamp:t toc:t todo:t |:t
#+CREATOR: Emacs 24.2.1 (Org mode 8.2.1)
#+DESCRIPTION:
#+EXCLUDE_TAGS: noexport

#+LANGUAGE: en

Yep, that will happen. However, the original idea was to get frame
headlines into the table of contents. In order to achieve this I would
have to have H:2 and repeat the frame title as follows:
# --------------------------------------------------------------------
#+TITLE: Beamer test
#+OPTIONS: ':nil *:t -:t ::t <:t H:2 \n:nil ^:t arch:headline
#+OPTIONS: author:t c:nil creator:comment d:(not LOGBOOK) date:t e:t
#+OPTIONS: email:nil f:t inline:t num:t p:nil pri:nil prop:nil stat:t
#+OPTIONS: tags:t tasks:t tex:t timestamp:t toc:t todo:t |:t
#+CREATOR: Emacs 24.2.1 (Org mode 8.2.1)
#+DESCRIPTION:
#+EXCLUDE_TAGS: noexport

#+SELECT_TAGS: export
* This is the first slide
** This is the first slide
- with some fancy text
* And this is the second slide
** And this is the second slide
- with one commented item...
# --------------------------------------------------------------------
The output is correct, but requires duplication of information, which is
practically always a bad idea.

As far as I know this is a beamer design decision. The idea seems to
be that if your presentation is short enough that the individual frame
titles would fit in a table of contents then you don't actually need
one; see the beamer user guide at
http://ctan.mackichan.com/macros/latex/contrib/beamer/doc/beameruserguide.pdf.

Ok, so be it, I can live with that decision.
