It's easy to remove the decency of latexsym as it only defines a very
limited number of symbols (see texdoc latexsym). Using amssymb
symbols will even look better IMO, but check this document:
#+BEGIN_SRC Org
#+latex:\Huge
- [ ] x
- [-] x
- [X] x
#+begin_latex
\begin{itemize}
\item $\square$ x
\item $\boxminus$ x
\item $\boxtimes$ x
\end{itemize}
#+end_latex
#+END_SRC
Obviously, it requires the removal of Diamond (my entity patch) and
Box (this patch)

Subject: [PATCH 2/2] Remove dependency on latexsym.
* ox-latex.el (org-latex-item): Use square as unchecked symbol.
* org.el (org-latex-default-packages-alist): Remove latexsym.
Use amssymb symbols to reduce required packages.
