In Emacs 27, babel source blocks do not export syntax highlighting to ODT format.

The same org document is exported as expected in Emacs 25.

Versions:

GNU Emacs 27.0.50 (build 2, x86_64-pc-linux-gnu, GTK+ Version 3.22.11) of 2017-10-06

Org mode version 9.1.2 (release_9.1.2-40-g6ca906 @ /usr/share/emacs/27.0.50/lisp/org/)

How to export babel source blocks with syntax highlighting to ODT in org-mode in Emacs 27?

Author of the ODT backend here.

Source syntax highlighting works with the enhanced ODT backend.

For the impatient, the enhanced ODT backend can be installed by adding https://kjambunathan.github.io/elpa/ to package-archives. You can learn more about the enhanced ODT exporter by visiting the Github repo The Authoritative fork of Org mode's ODT exporter

Unfortunately I don't have enough karma to post a comment, so:

I think that this is a bug in emacs or org mode. I'm submitting a bug report and I'll try to follow it up, hopefully this won't make it into the emacs 26 release.

Here's a link to the intial bug report, I'll try to update this answer in case I learn anything new: http://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/emacs-orgmode/2017-10/msg00161.html

I have now filed a bug report to emacs to try to get some emacs developers to look at it: https://debbugs.gnu.org/cgi/bugreport.cgi?bug=28806
