Bug Description
Binary package hint: tellico
1. Ubuntu 8.10
2. tellico:
Installed: 1.3.3-1ubuntu1~
Candidate: 1.3.3-1ubuntu1~
Version table:
*** 1.3.3-1ubuntu1~
500 file: ./ Packages
100 /var/lib/
1.
500 http://
3. open a tellico book collection, browse some items, close tellico
4. if I browse the collection, the collection is marked as changed and I get a dialog asking me if I want to save the changes when I try to close tellico. This should not happen, unless I really change something like editing, adding or removing an item or changing the collection fields. Simply browsing should not mark the collection as 'dirty'. This is annoying, shorten the life of my hardware (if I keep my collection on an USB stick, saving the collection all the time can shorten its life), produce unwanted saves (if I save all the time, just to be sure nothing important is lost) or produce data loss (if I don't save because I forgot I really changed something).
The collection is not marked if I simply open it, but not browse it. This bug is present in both 1.3.2 and 1.3.3.

I tried to reproduce the bug without success. I even created a new Book collection just to make sure...
I am using 1.3.2.
Can you please do this test:
1. copy the file before opening it in tellico
2. open tellico, browse only, and close (so you need to save as you said)
3. then run a diff -Naur old new and report back...
