[turgon@minas-aran Contacts]$ file addressbook.db
addressbook.db: Berkeley DB (Hash, version 5, native byte-order)
[turgon@minas-aran Contacts]$ /usr/local/BerkeleyDB.3.1/bin/db_upgrade addressbook.db
[turgon@minas-aran Contacts]$ file addressbook.db
addressbook.db: Berkeley DB (Hash, version 7, native byte-order)

And then my records, in the new DB format.
And I still see no contacts at all.
I'm using an Evo Mandrake 7.0 rpm, on Mandrake 7.2.
It's been like close to a month since I've been able to see or access my contact list. Can't anybody please tell me something that will work, to get my contacts back?
