Description Aurimas Černius 2010-12-18 21:15:43 UTC 
The following command

gnote --open-note=<note_file>

succeeds only when opening a note, that is in Gnote collection of notes. If it's an external file, gnote fails to read it with error message, similar to this:

Entity: line 8: parser error : Extra content at the end of the document
Comment 1 Pierre-Yves Luyten 2011-07-19 13:46:24 UTC 
The error happens at libxml2 usage in gnote.cpp, 

  xmlDocPtr doc = xmlParseDoc((const xmlChar*)noteXml.c_str());

The xmlParseDoc displays the parser error. 
Actually, this noteXml argument comes from a read_to_rend method in streamreader.cpp. This read_to_end method puts extra content at the end of noteXml but I can't understand yet the issue more precisely.
Comment 2 Aurimas Černius 2012-06-19 16:09:33 UTC 
I can no longer reproduce this bug, wokrs as expected.
