Build ID: 20140319131026
Steps to reproduce:
my specific packaged version is 17.0.10-1~deb7u1
Create a contact, first name
foo "bar"
display name
foo "bar" x
export csv address book,
goto relevant line
Actual results:
"foo ""bar"""",,"foo ""bar" x""",,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,
The quoting scheme does not make sense. They aren't escaped or balanced.
Expected results:
Wikipedia says http://www.rfc-editor.org/rfc/rfc4180.txt is a de-facto standard. It requires quotes to escape any quotes within quoted fields, resulting in this expected output.
"foo ""bar""",,"foo ""bar"" x",,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,
