The system here is; Ubuntu 12.04LTS, Emacs 23.3.1, Org-mode version 6.33x
1) Emacs with Org was recently installed via the Ubuntu Software Centre. If the Org version here is 6.33x, and Org is now version 8, then I feel I should upgrade Org. The Org Manual http://orgmode.org/manual/Installation.html lists 3 ways to install a new version, but no suggestions how to remove the older version. I can't find an Org 6.3 package in Synaptic to remove. That section warns against have two different versions present. So, I guess it would be best for me to use the first method, "Downloading Org as an archive", and to simply include its load-path in my .emacs. 2) In attempting to publish a sub-section to a PDF, I find I need a pdflatex component and a texi2dvi script. This is referred to Section 8 here; http://orgmode.org/worg/org-tutorials/org-latex-export.html I cannot find pdflatex or texi2dvi in Synaptic, so should I look via apt-get, or are they part of a larger package available to me?
