Package: dlume
Version: 0.2.4-10
Severity: critical
Justification: causes serious data loss

Dear Maintainer,

Ampersands, entered by the user in the contact fields, don't appear to be
encoded properly in the dlume-data.xml file.

Steps to reproduce:
1. Add a new contact. First name 'x', last name 'foo & bar'
2. Quit dlume
3. Start dlume

Expected:
Last name remains unchanged (foo & bar).

What happened instead:
* Quiting dlume gives this error:
  "error : unterminated entity reference    bar"
* dlume-data.xml contains:
  <record>
    <first_name>x</first_name>
    <last_name/>
  </record>
* After starting dlume again, the last name for that address is empty.

I tried entering the last name as 'foo &amp; bar'. 
dlume-data.xml then shows this after quiting dlume:
<record>
  <first_name>X</first_name>
  <last_name>foo &amp; bar</last_name>
</record>
If you then start dlume again, the last name shows up as 'foo & bar' and
quiting dlume once more results in the loss of the last name.
