It turned out to be quite easy, since bbdb-delete-field-or-record can
act on all records and makes it straightforward to clear a single field
in the whole database.

I:
* exported all the google contacts synced by asynk to a vcard
* imported it in bbdb
* merged the duplicates
* cleared all the gids fields (from google) with C-* C-u C-k
* cleared all the notes fields (from the importation of the vcard) with C-* C-u 
C-k

However Asynk won't delete the profile, complains with:

--8<---------------cut here---------------start------------->8---
Due to errors in clearing sync tags, profile bbgcsynk is not being deleted from 
your Asynk configuration
--8<---------------cut here---------------end--------------->8---

Since all my contacts are now in a clean bbdb file, I guess I can force
it to clear it. Is it enough to remove the state.json file in ~/.asynk ?

Thanks again for your help.

Julien.
