I broke the blog again posting an entry with non-ascii characters with gnome-blog. I can’t recall whether that was gnome-blog or NewsBruiser problem, but the end result is that trying to read the blog gives a traceback instead.
This time around I got the bright idea to get the tarball of all my blog entries to see which ones are broken (as gnome-blog error is as informative as xmlrpclib error
) Once I knew the entries which were broken (they were zero byte files) it was easy enough to delete them and get things back in working order.
