This problem is deeper than I expected and has to do with the state/cache: on_close_page ... self.save_uistate(). Here is my `notebook.zim`:

```
[Notebook]
disable_trash=False
document_root=
endofline=unix
home=Home
icon=
interwiki=jp
name=plan
profile=
shared=False
```

Whether shared is True or False, it keeps state in `$HOME/.cache` directory:

```
DEBUG: Running from a source dir: /Users/reagle/bin/zim-0.68
DEBUG: Set XDG_DATA_HOME to /Users/reagle/.local/share
DEBUG: Set XDG_DATA_DIRS to [<Dir: /usr/share>, <Dir: /usr/local/share>]
DEBUG: Set XDG_CONFIG_HOME to /Users/reagle/.config
DEBUG: Set XDG_CONFIG_DIRS to [<Dir: /etc/xdg>]
DEBUG: Set XDG_CACHE_HOME to /Users/reagle/.cache
```

There, I deleted `notebook-Users_reagle_joseph_plan_zim/`. And hurray, I now start on the home page, but still the path state is never retained. After I browse a bunch of pages and quit, the state is:

```
[History]
list=[["Home",0,null]]
recent=[["Home",0,null]]
current=0
```

Also (and I suspect this is the crux) as I browse the pages I get these errors:

```
