Bug Description
Binary package hint: ubuntuone-client
Ubuntu One is reporting that all my files are up-to-date. But the contents of my local replica are different from the contents of the online replica (which I can verify).
package: ubuntuone-client 1.0.3-0ubuntu1
release: Ubuntu 9.10
What I expected to happen: when I add/modify a file in the local ubuntu-one folder, that it would update to the cloud.
What happened instead: I have newer files locally that have not updated to the cloud; ubuntuone-client reports, however, that all files are up to date.

I updated the files and they have now synced.
It's frustrating that I got no response/help on this. There is something wrong; the software is "supported." I mean, there's evidently a bug in Ubuntu One where updates can get lost. This is a revenue initiative for Canonical. Seems like something that should be addressed.
