Comment 2 for bug 827658

Christian > I am sorry for inconvenience. We should definitely patch the stable version before releasing 0.2.9. Maybe we can provide for 0.2.9 and 0.3 script which will revert tasks back. There is a quick workaround how to enable your 0.2.4 tasks:

1, Open your projects.xml file located at ~/.local/share/gtg/projects.xml.
2, Edit backend element:
  -> replace module="backend_localfile" by module="localfile"
  -> replace attribute name path="<your path>" by filename="<your path>"

Save and GTG 0.2.4 starts correctly. (I've tried it on my own tasks, it works)

If you want to test the trunk, you should do that by these two scritps
scripts/import_my_tasks_into_debug_tasks.sh
scripts/debug.sh
