Bug Description

Binary package hint: evolution

After upgrading to natty, evolution migrated my ~/.evolution folder to ~/.private and ~/.config.

Unfortunately, my default Personal address book failed to open after the migration. (See attached screenshot).

Comparing the addressbook definitions in gconf between my broken one and a pristine one shows the following extra line:

uri="file:///home/mdeslaur/.evolution/addressbook/local/system"

When removed, the addressbook works again. My Evolution directory has been migrated between releases for a while, the "uri" link may be from an outdated version of Evolution.
