[Evolution] deleting ~/.evolution/cache/

[Andrew Ziem <ahz001 gmail com>]

When Evolution is not running, could deleting the files in ~/.evolution/cache/ cause random contacts to disappear?  

I write a system cleaner which cleans Evolution[1] (among other things like logs, temp files, etc.), and one user has complained a few of his contacts have disappeared[1].  I cannot reproduce the problem on the same system (Ubuntu 9.10, Evolution 2.28.1).

I notice the local contacts are only stored in  ~/addressbook/local/system/addressbook.db{,summary}
