I had the same problem, and solved it like this

• Mark all contacts

Right-click and select save to vcard-file or whatever it sais

Exit evolution (I ran killev just to be sure)

Remove evolution/local/Contacts/addressbook.db

Restart evolution

Import the file you exported before

After that everything worked greate
