I remember looking at this one a while back, but could not find the 
problem back then. Now tested with 0.24, 0.25 and 0.26 and I can not 
reproduce the reported behavior based on the "notebook.zim" given. My 
guess is that either his "notebook.list" (or "repositories.list") was 
corrupted or there was a bug in the backwards compatibility code for 
those files.

In either case it will not be productive to chase it in my opinion, 
unless you expect many users migrating from releases before 0.24 at this 
time. Of course if any show up I'm more then willing to talk them trough 
the manual fix.

Regards,

Jaap
