SUMMARY
A generated kmymoney-xml file contains a <FILEINFO> and a <KEYVALUEPAIRS> tag, as shown below:

<KMYMONEY-FILE>
  <FILEINFO>
    <CREATION_DATE date=“”/>
    <LAST_MODIFIED_DATE date=„2024-09-09T22:58:54+02:00“/>
    <VERSION id=“1”/>
    <FIXVERSION date=“”/>
    <APPVERSION id=„5.1.80-a82f24b57“/>
  </FILEINFO>
...

  <KEYVALUEPAIRS>
    <PAIR key=„LastModificationDate“ value=„2024-09-09T22:58:54+02:00“/>
    <PAIR key=“kmm-baseCurrency” value=“USD”/>
    <PAIR key=„kmm-id“ value=„{1bc5425b-d897-4dea-a489-2db5abd97368}“/>
  </KEYVALUEPAIRS>
</KMYMONEY-FILE>

This file contains duplicate xml tags as described below.

STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1. open the attached kmymoney file
2. check the contained xml tag <FILEINFO> 

OBSERVED RESULT
The xml tag <LAST_MODIFIED_DATE> is duplicated in the <KEYVALUEPAIRS> tag and with a correction for the bug 498416 also the <FIXVERSION>.

EXPECTED RESULT
No xml tags from the <FILEINFO> tag should be duplicated in the <KEYVALUEPAIRS> tag.

SOFTWARE/OS VERSIONS
Operating System: openSUSE Leap 15.6
KDE Plasma Version: 5.27.11
KDE Frameworks Version: 5.115.0

In fact the key is different, but the value is the same

here the key is really duplicated.

The reason for this is usually some form of backward compatibility. And since it does not hurt, I don't want to touch it right now.
