Can you reproduce it?

If I click on "Add to Local Roster", I do not have to enter the SIP
address. Ekiga knows it, and adds it for you.

It does not complain either of duplicate contacts.

Yannick is in Cc, he will fix the doc.

If you add address books in Evolution, they will be accessible in Ekiga.
But Ekiga does not allow adding a new Evolution address book by itself.

Why do you want to see the SIP address?
