[Orgmode] Re: Debugging the publishing process?

[Ángel de Vicente]

Hi,

thanks Bernt (and Sebastian) for the help with this. In the end it turned  
out that I had two places with the ORG files and apparently it was getting  
quite confused with both. Getting rid of one of them and just leaving the  
6.09a one did the trick. (I hadn't touched this computer for a bit more  
than two months, so one forgets what is installed... :)

Thanks a lot,
Ángel de Vicente
