Bug: ODT exporter permission issue on functional distros (eg, Guix) [9.1


From: Christopher Lemmer Webber
Subject: Bug: ODT exporter permission issue on functional distros (eg, Guix) [9.1.9 (release_9.1.9-65-g5e4542 @ /home/cwebber/.guix-profile/share/emacs/26.3/lisp/org/)]
Date: Sun, 11 Oct 2020 13:15:14 -0400
User-agent: mu4e 1.4.12; emacs 26.3

Emacs  : GNU Emacs 26.3 (build 1, x86_64-pc-linux-gnu, GTK+ Version 3.24.20)
Package: Org mode version 9.1.9 (release_9.1.9-65-g5e4542 @ 
/home/cwebber/.guix-profile/share/emacs/26.3/lisp/org/)

Not sure if this will work on Windows because it uses posix'y
permissions.... but anyway I found that the ODT exporter did not work on
Guix because the styles.xml got copied over as read-only.  This fixes it
for me.

I've already done copyright assignment for the "AM/PM support on the
agenda timegrid" patch I sent in 2010; I assume this has not expired
over the last decade.  If you check the use-by date and my copyright
assignment has somehow gone moldy let me know and I'll be happy to
update it.

Subject: [PATCH] ox-odt: Fix read-only error with styles.xml.

On systems where the source file is read-only, it's possible that
the destination styles.xml could end up read-only as well, resulting
in an error when modified or deleted by us.

* lisp/ox-odt.el (org-odt-template): Explicitly set permissions of
styles.xml to read-write for the current user.
