Apostrophe's in title causes no sync - Report ID 971153180 and 1461861027
Hi,
I added a bunch of book chapters to my Zotero archive, and I ran into a problem where one would not sync.
I eventually figured out that the reason was that one of them had an apostrophe in title. That's a problem on Linux, because ' is a special character used for quoting. My guess is that became a problem when the file was renamed based on the title.
I fixed the problem by taking the apostrophe out of the title.
I reproduced this problem by making a new chapter, and attaching a dummy pdf file.

'
isn't a reserved character on any OS, including Linux, so it's not stripped from filenames. This also works for me on Ubuntu.What distro is this?
