Re: Bug: latex export of item description [9.3.6 (9.3.6-elpa)]

[Matthew Henderson]

Thanks Nicolas,

What version of org-mode are you using? I recently updated to 9.3.6 and am fairly certain this issue is new.

I have not compared latex output from previous org-mode versions however description labels in previous org mode versions were treated correctly by xelatex(e.g bold font in a koma script article class). This stopped working after my upgrade which prompted me to look at the latex output.

The format you get creates a properly formatted pdf. 

  \begin{description}
  \item[{label}] information
  \end{description}  

Regards,

Matthew

FWIW, here I get

  \begin{description}
  \item[{label}] information
  \end{description}
