I've been using Mnemosyne without (self-inflicted) problems for a while now.  
However, today when I tried syncing my Android phone with my Linux computer, I 
got a note that the versions were incompatible.

I upgraded my Linux version of mnemosyne to v2.3.4 by installing the tarball, 
and it seemed that I had lost all my cards.  After some googling, I was able to 
run "mnemosyne -d ~/.local/share/mnemosyne", and then it seemed to work fine.  
However, it's not clear to me why it didn't work like it used to.  I guess it 
was necessary to change the default directory, but it wasn't clear to me what 
the new default is, and I didn't see anything about it in the Settings menu.

The next thing I noticed was that when I tried to sync, the server side (Linux) 
said "Sync failed, restoring from backup. The next sync will need to be a full 
sync." while the client hung.  When I pressed "OK" on the server, the client 
(Android) said "Sync cycle detected.  Sync through intermediate partner."

When I tried on a different phone with no history, it worked fine.

Should I just revert to the Linux version of my cards?  I went a couple months 
without syncing so I'd lose some information, but at least I wouldn't lose any 
cards.

Thanks,
Ben
