Indeed! I find an older org-version (7.x) in /usr/share/emacs. I have now changed the order in the load-path-list to load the local installations first. After reading the things on the list an on worg on "mixed installations" I'm not sure if I might delete the org-subdirectory in /usr/share/emacs. So I leave it untouched and hope that the changed order of the load paths will do the trick. At any rate, I've now been able to set the org-export-with-smart-quotes variable and to adjust org-export-smart-quotes-alist. The latter didn't work at first, only after putting it into (eval-after-load 'ox ...). Now everything seems to be working fine. Thanks for the help! Salome
