Thanks for the investigation, and yes, this three stage lookup exists for most
of Onboard's files. The problem seems to be that stage 1) is meant for absolute
paths, rather than local directories, but this isn't enforced. As you
discovered, having a file in the current directory with the same name as the
layout to be loaded triggers this bug.
I think, instead of looking at the various extensions, we can simply check for
an absolute path. I'll look into that.
Good to hear you're happy with 0.99. I appreciate the feedback, we don't
get that much for Precise.
One more suggestion: you can of course copy layouts by hand, but the
easiest way to start a new layout is by pressing the "Personalize"
button in Preferences->Layouts. This way you get copies of all the
necessary files, and the filename references in the *.onboard file are
adjusted too.

I thought I had everything setup just the way I wanted it, but all the
sudden, it started having problems on one of my three deployments. Don't
really know what happened as everyone swears they didn't do anything. I have
installed onboard 0.99 from the stable ppa onto Ubuntu 12.04. I have python
2.7.3.
Here is my situation:
1) When I try to open onboard with a custom layout from the console, it
works fine
2) When I try to open onboard with a non-custom layout (like Compact
specifically is what I tested) programmatically from within a node.js program
it works fine
3) When I try to open onboard with a custom layout (made from Compact, not
even modified yet) programmatically from within a node.js program, it crashes
with the following error messages put out to stderr:

I have put this file through xml validators and it comes up clean.
I googled the first error about OnboardGtk.py line 111 and found that
others fixed their problems by making sure they had librsvg2-common
installled, but I already had that installed. Tried to install anyway
just to make sure there wasn't an upgrade problem, but it said I was
on the latest version.
This one has really got me stumped and I wonder if it's not some sort
of problem with onboard hence why I'm posting what I think is a bug.
