problem with BibTeX file import and export

Hi There !

I have just installed Tellico 1.3 from the Ubuntu package, and I failed 
to import .bib files coming from Gesbib 4. Import seems to operate OK 
with no error messages (if there were any, I didn't know where to find 
them), but in the end I have 0 file imported !  I then imported a small 
file from Amazon.com and attempted to export it to BibTeX : Again it 
seemed to work OK, except that the resulting .bib file only showed one 
line of text, saying :

"Comment generated by Tellico 1.3"

with nothing else and a filesize in accordance with the number of 
characters.

Have I missed anything, or is a bug responsible of such behaviour ?

By the way, I have also tested an older version on my other PC running 
on Debian Sarge. The Tellico version which is available as Debian 
package for Sarge, is 1.2.5, and it behaves the same as described above, 
as far as BibTeX import and export is concerned. Importing from csv 
files does work though...

Thanks in advance for any help

Bernard
