Nope.

$ libreoffice --help
The program 'libreoffice' is currently not installed.

(I installed libreoffice by downloading from their website, not using Ubuntu 
packages -- because I had some issues with it a while back and the advice from 
their user community is always, don't use system-bundled packages because they 
are out of date.)

In any case, it doesn't make a difference: org still insists on issuing the 
command for okular.

I also tried the full path to the binary /usr/bin/libreoffice6.0 -- still 
exports to Okular.

As a final test, I deleted both the PDF and ODT entries from org-file-apps -- 
so that there is absolutely no reference in any org code file or variable to 
okular -- and it is *still* opening the exported ODT in okular! Which strikes 
me as insane.

org-open-file seems to be a rather complex function. I can't make heads or 
tails of it. If I had to guess, I would suppose that it has some fallback 
position that doesn't depend on org configuration variables.

Anyway, the solution for now, as I'm under some time pressure, is to declare 
that ODT export is broken on my system until I can scrape together some time to 
upgrade org. PDF export is actually OK for now (and working fine).
