You can use the standard method of holding down cntrl and shift to select
multiple categories. Note that this is handled by Qt, not by Mnemosyne itself.

Running with a empty .mnemosyne and importing the xml and then trying to
import the poem.txt seems to manifest the same problem of
not-importing-but-no-errors (grep turns up nothing, card count doesn't
change).

I did exactly that, and tried to import it in the literature category. The
card count jumped from 3718 to 3748, as expected...

Does the problem also occur when you install Mnemosyne from source, as opposed
to from the Ubuntu package? Perhaps there is an issue with the package (which
is not built by me).

Using the sourceforge 1.2 tarball, and running in place (after a python build), 
the problem still manifests: importing to Literature fails, importing to 
default succeeds. The terminal output is more verbose than if it were 
installed, though:
