[ubuntu-mono] [Bug 848250] Re: Tomboy sync fails on Oneiric, New Note Template already exists

[Matt Deaton]

For what it is worth I was able to get my notes to sync by copying the
contents of ~/.local/tomboy from my 10.04 machine to the 11.10 beta and
then syncing. It complained about a few notes needed to be renamed, but
it does sync now.

  A similar symptom is reported in post #4 of bug #534488, though I
  think the original bug there is different.
