Nope, didn't work, and I compiled the latest BerkeleyDB from source.

(close Evo)
(killev)
(oaf-slay)

[turgon minas-aran Contacts]$ file addressbook.db
addressbook.db: Berkeley DB (Hash, version 5, native byte-order)
[turgon minas-aran Contacts]$ /usr/local/BerkeleyDB.3.1/bin/db_upgrade addressbook.db
[turgon minas-aran Contacts]$ file addressbook.db
addressbook.db: Berkeley DB (Hash, version 7, native byte-order)
[turgon minas-aran Contacts]$ /usr/local/BerkeleyDB.3.1/bin/db_dump -p addressbook.db
VERSION=2
format=print
type=hash
h_nelem=16
HEADER=END
 PAS-DB-VERSION\00
 0.1\00
 pas-id-3A8B578E00000000\00

And then my records, in the new DB format.

And I still see no contacts at all.

I'm using an Evo Mandrake 7.0 rpm, on Mandrake 7.2.

It's been like close to a month since I've been able to see or access my contact list. Can't anybody please tell me something that will work, to get my contacts back?
