Hi Nicolas,

I'd like to see a reference of some sort to the equation. The text should
read "See (1)" or "See Equation (1)". BUT, perhaps this bug, like most, was
operator error on my part.

Without setting up MathML the equation exported as raw LaTeX into the ODT
file. This was fine for me. I saw:

\begin{equation}
42
\end{equation}

 I think that ODT does not view this as an actual equation, so the
[[eq:foo]] label could not be resolved.

Thanks to the hint from Robert Pluim I have it working now. Unlike his
solution, setting `org-latex-mathml-convert-command` did not solve it for
me, but properly setting `org-latex-to-mathml-convert-command` as per
https://www.gnu.org/software/emacs/manual/html_node/org/Working-with-LaTeX-math-snippets.html#Working-with-LaTeX-math-snippets
did work for me. Now the equation appears properly formatted, not as LaTeX,
*and* the reference works.

Thank you (and Robert) for your help with this,

   -k.
