[...snip the rest...]

This log indicates that the problem occurs during the loading of the
fontenc package.  Fontenc is a good package to load, apparently:
<https://tex.stackexchange.com/questions/664/why-should-i-use-usepackaget1fontenc>.

You can probably fix this error by either removing the entry for the
fontenc package from org-latex-default-packages-alist, or setting
org-latex-compiler to either lualatex or xelatex (newer latex compilers
neither of which use fontenc).  Of course, either of these might uncover
further problems (the parabola approach to packaging texlive seems
pretty haphazard), but I believe either step would fix the problem you
have reported.
