I found the files schemas.xml, OrgOdtContentTemplate.xml, and OrgOdtStyles.xml in the git repository for Org mode, in the etc/schema and etc/styles directories. I then copied the etc/schema/schemas.xmls and etc/styles/OrgOdt*.xml files to my /usr/share/emacs/etc/org/styles directory, and the errors went away. That must be where org-odt-schema-dir defaults to, as I don't have it set anywhere. Good luck! Dave
