Title: RE: File already exists, path 'labels/$/'

I agree, that seems to have been the issue. I removed the entries without the / at the end so there was only a single entry for each path, and the rest of the import ran flawlessly!

It was like a trip through memory lane watching the import. So many old version of our products... Hehe

Thank you for this amazing tool! I really, really appreciate all of your hard work.

Ian.

I think in this special case, the bigger problem is the "double slash",
since they are treated as two directories. The converter tries to create
the following directories in that order:

$
$/
$//cirqit_src
$//cirqit_src/
$//cirqit_src//Opera
...

actually $ and $/ points to the same directory and the import failes.

But in order to make it portable, we should filter all filesystem
problematic characters.
