Re: [Evolution] Lost contact wih my Contacts in Evolution 2.0.4 ;-)

[Bernard Fay <bfay deepcosmos ca>]

Well, actually I used to be on Debian Sarge (stable) where everything
was working fine.  I tried to migrate to Debian Etch (unstable) where I
had different kinds of problem with Evolution and other applications.  I
then switched back to Debian Sarge and at this moment I begun to have
problems.

With what you wrote Peter, I did a little test. I created a new user,
logged in with this user and started Evolution.  The contacts for this
new users were ok.  So I guess it might be related to some kind of
corruption in a db or some files in the structure of the files in the
evolution directory.

Does someone can point me to a documentation about the structure of the
files in the .evolution directory and the structure of those files as
well?

Thanks,
Bernard
