Re: Missing org-mode manual page: Validating OpenDocument XML

[Vaidheeswaran C <vaidheeswaran.chinnaraju@gmail.com>]

In your init.el search for undo-tree and remove it (temporarily) Or do
M-x list-packages and uninstall the undo-tree elpa package.

loext:contextual-spacing comes from your styles file.  Find out where
the style file comes from.

If you are using Org package from non-GNU repositories, I would
strongly recommend that you install from official GNU repositories.
i.e., C-h v package-archives and remove all the non-GNU or non-Orgmode
repos.
