      When you create a blank course and add gradebook categories, then you try to import a course into it that has an existing gradebook structure it only imports the activities and adds them to the bottom of the gradebook list. Thus not importing the gradebook.

      Steps to Recreate:

      1. Create a Course, do nothing to it
      2. Go to the grade book
      3. Add Gradebook categories (Example: Make 3 called Fing, Fang, Foo)
      4. Go to the main course page and import a course that has a completely set up grade book, including its own (different) categories containing grade items
      5. Use default import settings
      6. Look at grade book

      Activities imported but categories did not so they are all listed under the categories created in course before import

      If you create a course and do not do anything to the gradebook, it imports fine.
