Bug Description

I'm working on an odt file in LibreOffice and, after suspending my computer last night and resuming this morning, every time I tried to save it I would get a message from LibreOffice saying "The file has been changed since it was opened for editing in LibreOffice" etc. I closed the file and tried to reopen and discovered the file no longer existed. I looked in Thunar (using XFCE now) and found that indeed the file didn't exist, but there was a series of files named filename.odt.u1conflict and then the same name with .1, .2, up to .5 appended. If I remove this extension, it immediately reverts back, so it's impossible to have a file just called filename.odt.

I just killed ubuntuone-syncdaemon and restarted with ubuntuone-launch, and filename.odt reappeared, with a modified time of the moment I restarted ubuntuone.

And I should mention that the version that appeared as the base filename, unsurprisingly, was the one I saved last night before suspending, not the one I modified this morning, so I had to delete the one Ubuntu One had downloaded to my computer under that name and replaced it with ....5.
