Comment 2 for bug 784320

I experience this problem (random notes all suddenly bear a last update time of "now") even long after syncing "between" two machines. My scenario:

I normally use machine A exclusively, and create lots of tomboy notes using it. I do not enable "automatic sync".
When I'm about to go on a week long trip where I will take my machine B laptop, I manually sync my notes from machine A to Ubuntu One, then I manually sync on machine B to bring all my notes in (but I leave "automatic sync" disabled on B also).
While I'm on the trip (using machine B exclusively) I create more notes, and I sync to Ubuntu One once or twice per day to make sure my notes are getting archived.
I never see any errors or warnings from the sync, and it often works perfectly.
But after the sync, I sometimes I find that a random set of my very old notes all now show a "Last Changed" time of right now.
This happens to a random set of ten to twenty of my total 200 or so notes.
The notes that get get the problem don't seem to have anything in common -- they were all created months apart -- the affected notes do *not* all link to a note that has been updated -- some of the affected notes don't link to anything.
