So it seems that the numbering of numbered items in a plain list are not
maintained when the numbered item is also a TODO plain list item.
Here is how I produced the issue:
$ emacs -Q
I created a very simple org-mode file:
--8<---------------cut here---------------start------------->8---
* Test file
1. [ ] item
2. item 2
3. item 3
--8<---------------cut here---------------end--------------->8---
I then used the export facilities to create a PDF: C-c C-e l o
I expected to see a PDF that looked like:
--8<---------------cut here---------------start------------->8---
Contents
1 Test File
1 Test File
1. [] item
2. item 2
3. item 3
--8<---------------cut here---------------end--------------->8---
Instead I see a pdf that has the following:
--8<---------------cut here---------------start------------->8---
Contents
1 Test File
1 Test File
[] item
1. item 2
2. item 3
--8<---------------cut here---------------end--------------->8---
Notice how the "1." was removed in the generated PDF from the first item
and the numbering started from 1. on "item 2"
This used to work, but I'm not exactly certain when it changed.
It *appears* that the generated \item for enumeration is incorrect?
The .tex file contains the following:
\item[{$\square$}] item
I /think/ that this should be:
\item{$\square$} item
Maybe the [ and ] are not being stripped and converted into the {$\square$},
but are rather being left and ending up
with [{$\square$}].
(The same thing happens with the \boxtimes for "completed" TODOs.
If that is the case then I /think/ that this patch would fix it:
diff --git a/lisp/ox-latex.el b/lisp/ox-latex.el
index 832d9bf8..b9734443 100644
--- a/lisp/ox-latex.el

((or checkbox tag)

+ (format "{%s} %s" (or checkbox tag) tag-footnotes))
;; Without a tag or a check-box, if CONTENTS starts with
;; an opening square bracket, add "\relax" to "\item",
;; unless the brackets comes from an initial export
I haven't done any thorough testing, just looking where I thought the issue
might be.
Thanks for all the great work on Org Mode,
