Package: evolution
Version: 2.28.3-1+b1
Severity: normal
Tags: squeeze

It seems, that my evolution forgets to use older adressbook.db files.

in .evolution/adressbook/local are some more subfolders, which contains
adressbooks. Only the newest one is used. 

If you go into the contacts view in evolution only 1 adressbook is visible.
But I had setup more than 1 adress-list, i.e personal, job, hobby list. 

First it would be useful if we can get the old contacts back with an
importfilter.

Second I don't know why evolution stops working with this older adressbooks.
this should not happen.  

output of ls in /local/dir is here:
