loss of database after failed refresh

[GoogleCodeExporter]

What steps will reproduce the problem?
1. Add an invalid picture in a folder known by jbrout (my picture had an
invalid name with a French accent encoded with something else than utf-8)
2. Refresh the top folder in jbrout. An error occurs and a message is
displayed. Everything else seems correct.
3. Close and restart jbrout. The list of folders and pictures is now empty,
except from the name of the folder above my previous top folder. 

What is the expected output? What do you see instead?
Keep the old database as it is or enable not to save the corrupt one ? 

What version of the product are you using? On what operating system?
jbrout 0.3.174 on linux ubuntu 9.04

Please provide any additional information below.

We need a kind of transaction support for handling this kind of issues.
