Re: Odd problem with Beagle - disappearing address book

[Ryan B Rousseau <rrouss7 lsu edu>]

I noticed this problem a few weeks ago. What seems to happen is that it
will work fine one time, but the next time beagled runs, it will load the
contacts, but then promptly dumps them. That's what I observed from the
beagle logs anyhow. I posted a bug about it,
http://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=300916

Also, I've already applied the fix Martin suggested, but I still have the
problem.
