I purged all the label attributes, so it has become an "anonymous" graph.
This is the trace of the python console: as you can see, nodes, edges and
properties are correctly loaded

>>> g = load_graph('my.graph.xml.gz')
>>> g.num_vertices()
153
>>> g.num_edges()
1786
>>> g.list_properties()
L              (graph)   (type: double, val: 1554100010.16)
C(1)           (graph)   (type: python::object, val: (0.4511453168253582,
0.018514982664053672))
Cdepth         (graph)   (type: int32_t, val: 3)
C(2)           (graph)   (type: double, val: 0.720623810024)
label          (graph)   (type: string, val: my.graph)
h              (vertex)  (type: string)
weight         (edge)    (type: double)
bl             (edge)    (type: double)
identity       (edge)    (type: double)

but when I save it, the output is corrupted. Just a side note: I'm running
ubuntu on virtualbox.

Thanks,
Giuseppe
