Re: [Evolution] Address Book not Restoring

[BC <bcreighton runbox com>]

Solved.  Simply required a reboot, which was a bit odd because I got the
same message about sessionmanager and dbus, but after 30 seconds it
rebooted.  Opened Evolution, there was all of my contacts and no
duplicates.

I looked for a place to donate money to the Evolution project on the
gnome project page, but didn't see one.  Is there a link where I can
donate?

And, thanks for your very patient help.

        Hi,
I suppose you imported it into the On This Computer/Personal. Could
you:

   $ cd ~/.local/share/evolution/addressbook/system
   $ sqlite3 contacts.db "SELECT COUNT(*) FROM folder_id"

Does the number reflect the result of (using the restored contacts.vcf
from the previous steps):

   $ cat contacts.vcf | grep -c BEGIN

If those match, then I suggest to check whether anything from the
following is in effect for that address book:

        Bye,
        Milan
