Brief Summary

I would like to address an issue that I detected in the current (could have been an earlier version as well) of KeepassXC 2.7.10 which I am using under Fedora Linux (RPM Package).

Let us pretend, that I am having a KeyyPass file (with various Passwords inside). The Root Element is called "Passwords" and below it the Nodes and Leaves are attached (Groups with Entries inside).

Passwords -> Group Elements -> Nodes

When I export the Password file as *.cvs and then import the *.cvs file again (as new Passwords file), then another Root element named "Passwords" is getting added.

This leads to the following issue:

Passwords -> Passwords -> Group Elements -> Nodes

If you keep repeating the export and import again, then another Root element is being added.

Passwords -> Passwords -> Passwords -> Group Elements -> Nodes

From what I remember, this was not the case with previous versions of KeepassXC.
Therefore I would like to ask, whether this can be reviewed and fixed.

Regards.

Steps to Reproduce

1. Have a Passwords file at hand.
2. Export to CSV
3. Import from CSV (as new Passwords file, skipping first line which is the CSV header)

Expected Versus Actual Behavior

Expected:

• Keep the Root element

Actual:

• Export and Import keeps adding another level or Root element and stacking up.
