[Evolution] CVS HEAD addressbook problem

[Fred RISS <frederic riss laposte net>]

Hi, 

I'm using a recent CVS HEAD build of evolution, gtkhtml and gal. All is
working fine except the local addressbook which evolution fails to read.
The same files are correctly read by Evo 1.0.2. Erasing the files and
letting Evo recreate them doesn't help ; I get always the same error : 

"We were unable to open this addressbook.  Please check that the\n" 
"path exists and that you have permission to access it." 

I get the message in French, but this is the original version extracted
from the po file. It's emited in addressbook/gui/component/addressbook.c
around line 540. If I launch evolution-addressbook in a terminal and
then evolution in another and try to access the Contacts folder,
evolution-addressbook prints the following errors :

One part of the Bonobo-WARNING is in French (chemin vers un élément XML
d'interface utilisateur invalide) it means : "invalid path to an XML
user interface element".

Does anybody have a clue about these errors ?
