Description Michael Monreal 2005-05-12 09:11:20 UTC 
Distribution/Version: Ubuntu 5.04 / Garnome

From time to time when I start blam, it resets my feed list to the default list
that is loaded when blam is newly installed. I think this happened once after
updating to a newer version but not always at the first startup, I never found
out what triggers this.

But after updating to 1.8.0 I get this very often, in the 3 days of using the
newest blam I hat to re-import my subscription list at least 5 times... :(

Hmm .. that's worrying, I have not seen any of that, which mono installation are you using?
Comment 2 Michael Monreal 2005-05-12 09:38:05 UTC 
Currently it's version 1.1.7. 

I don't know how I could debug this as i can't find a pattern when this happens
but it seems that blam corrupts the xml file somehow and then installs the
default when I start it again...
Comment 3 Mikael Hallendal 2005-05-12 13:09:08 UTC 
I think this one is very related to #157149
Comment 4 Mikael Hallendal 2005-05-12 13:12:03 UTC 
Opened a new bug for tracking them both.

Comment 6 Michael Monreal 2005-10-27 10:10:31 UTC 
I'm re-opening this bug because blam is losing all it's subscriptions and
resetting to the default list again - 100% reproducable, every restart. If i add
a new feed, it is gone after blam is restarted. Also, blam starts with 0/0 for
all feeds. Using latest mono and gtk-sharp releases...
Comment 7 Eskil Bylund 2005-11-12 17:32:24 UTC 
This is caused by bug 76082 (http://bugzilla.ximian.com/show_bug.cgi?id=76082),
which caused the deserializing of the channel collection xml file to fail.

This has been fixed in Mono 1.1.10.
Comment 8 Michael Monreal 2005-11-12 20:31:15 UTC 
Right, upgrading to mono 1.1.10 fixed this again.
