Aloha all, Previously, export of LaTeX longtables that spanned a page break generated a caption on each page, resulting in multiple entries in the table of contents.
The attached patch for ox-latex.el implements the \endfirsthead command so the caption only appears once, at the top of the table. Subsequent pages of the table start with "Continued from previous page". All the best, Tom
