Did you try on hardy or intrepid? It seems to works on hardy, but is
broken on intrepid (intrepid ships the 0.4.0 version which is a partial
rewrite).

Someone should check the changes in the refresh_task_list() function
in src/functions.c between intrepid's 0.4.0 and hardy's 0.3.2 versions,
or report the bug upstream.
