Export issue

[Gwern Branwen]

Curious if anyone is getting this issue when they try to export their
cards to 2.x format with the Debian package mnemosyne-2.2.1-2:

An unexpected error has occurred.
Please forward the following info to the developers:

Traceback (innermost last):
File "/usr/lib/python2.7/dist-packages/mnemosyne/pyqt_ui/export_dlg.py",
line 68, in accept
result = self.format().do_export(filename)

line 113, in do_export

File "/usr/lib/python2.7/dist-packages/openSM2sync/text_formats/xml_format.py",
line 104, in repr_log_entry

File "/usr/lib/python2.7/xml/sax/saxutils.py", line 32, in escape
data = data.replace("&", "&amp;")
AttributeError: 'NoneType' object has no attribute 'replace'

Please send me the db file you're trying to export.

Cheers,

Fixed off-list, was related to bad Latex install.

Specifically, there being no Latex install and the error message not
explaining why thing were broken. So if anyone gets an export error
like that, check to make sure that you have a full Latex install
locally and you're not running off cached PNGs etc.
