.recently-used XML escaping error

[Ondřej Nový]

If i create file, named 'Magnetizmus – zakladni pojmy.ppt' and open it, it
writes to ~/.recently-used new entry:
<RecentFiles>
<RecentItem>
<URI>file:///home/katka/Desktop/Magnetizmus%20&%238211%3B%20zakladni%20pojmy.ppt</URI>
<Mime-Type>application/octet-stream</Mime-Type>
<Timestamp>1136320315</Timestamp>
<Groups>
<Group>openoffice.org</Group>
<Group>staroffice</Group>
<Group>starsuite</Group>
</Groups>
</RecentItem>
-- because that & is not escaped (in <URI> tag), gnome-panel crashe with error,
that & must by &amp;
if a logged out and logged in, it crash again. if i deleted this file
(.recenty-used), it works agains fine, but i must rename this file.

Ubuntu 5.10 - fully updated
Gnome-panel version: 2.12.1

Thanks for your bug. With what application do you open it? That would be an
application issue. openoffice.org is known to break that file, that's bug #24327
. Note than the current dapper version doesn't crash on escaping issue but
ignore the recently-used entries rather

yes, it seems that it's same bug as 18185. i'm opening it with openoffice, it's
powerpoint format.
