This is a minor issue. The replacement of LaTeX class options by
#+LATEX_CLASS_OPTIONS: [ngerman] doesn't work if the documentclass definition in org-latex-classes consists of more than one line. I used such a definition in my Koma-script letters: \documentclass[% fontsize=11pt,% strey_consult,% c4envelope, % optional ]{scrlttr2} For such a definition the replacement doesn't work. If I reduce the LaTeX expression to one line, everything is fine. I tracked down the issue to the regular expression in (if class-options (replace-regexp-in-string "^[ \t]*\\\\documentclass\\(\\[.*?\\]\\)" class-options header t nil 1) header) Here I gave up for today.
