Hi All,

In exactly the same vein as
https://orgmode.org/list/87mtujfj8k.fsf@tecosaur.com/, verbatim text in
captions is very problematic with LaTeX (breaks compilation).

I'd like to be submitting a patch instead of a bug, but I'm not sure
what the best method of addressing this within ox-latex.el is.
Do share if you have any ideas :)

I guess the solution is like the problem you mentioned above. You can
create a temporary back-end that exports code and verbatim objects
as \textt, using `org-latex--protect-texttt' function.

The calls to `org-export-data' at the end of
`org-latex--caption/label-string' can use this back-end instead.

I think it would be better to derive current back-end instead of `latex'
like we did in `org-latex-headline'. You can get current back-end with
(plist-get info :back-end).

HTH,
