If you backed up the evolution directory before doing upgrade, then go
to your backup, grab the addressbook.db file and rename it to
addressbook.db.temp then run this:

db_dump185 addressbook.db.temp | db_load addressbook.db

Now put the new addressbook.db into place and that's it.
Now i have a working Contacts, after upgrading from 0.10 to 0.11. Before
converting the database format i wasn't able to use Contacts at all with
the new Evo.

The procedure was suggested by Scott Carle.
