I used the System->Administration->Software Update to migrate from Fedora 11 
to Fedora 13, both (of course) x86_64.  This just seemed to be the GUI version of 
preupgrade.  The upgrade appears to have gone well except that my Evolution Contacts 
are now empty.  Evolution is now at version 2.30.3-1.fc13.  I have done a fair bit of 
googling, finding bug reports, and trying different solutions, but nothing has 
worked.  One of the posts suggested trying to list the address books, but that seems 
to fail as well as show below:

$ /usr/libexec/evolution/2.30/evolution-addressbook-export -l

(evolution-addressbook-export:8690): libebook-WARNING **: e-book.c:2245: cannot 
get book from factory: Message did not receive a reply (timeout by message bus)

(evolution-addressbook-export:8690): evolution-addressbook-tools-WARNING **: 
failed to open book

(evolution-addressbook-export:8690): libebook-WARNING **: e-book.c:2245: cannot 
get book from factory: The name :1.233 was not provided by any .service files

(evolution-addressbook-export:8690): evolution-addressbook-tools-WARNING **:

(evolution-addressbook-export:8690): libebook-WARNING **: e-book.c:2245: cannot

(evolution-addressbook-export:8690): evolution-addressbook-tools-WARNING **: 
failed to open book
$

The directory ~/.evolution/addressbook/local/system contains:

addressbook.db
addressbook.db.summary

Both with the correct ownership and permissions.  Why can Evolution not find 
these files?  Is there anyway that I can export these files?  The 
addressbook.db file is a version 9 Berkeley DB file.  There does not seem to be 
a way to import a Berkley DB file into Evolution.  At this point, I just want 
access to my contacts, even a dump to ASCII would be great.  So ANY suggestions 
would be welcome.  Thank you.
