Finally moved my home desktop from Fedora to CentOS. My spouse was unhappy with me upgrading from F9-->F10-->f11 etc and wanted something more stable.
I built a second machine which is now running in parallel to the old F11 desktop. I moved my data (mail and files) from the F11 box to the CentOS 5.4 box. I used tar to move everything. Mail and files transferred A-OK...but the Evolution address book did not.
Any tips on getting the old /home/.../.evolution/addressbook which worked with the version of Evolution on the new machine with an older version of Evolution?
BTW, on CentOS, I cannot add new addresses to the address book. User_id on the new machine is the same as on the old machine, so perms should not be the problem. I checked the selinux context and it is the same as everything else in /home
If I do a forced reinstall of Evolution would it mess up the mail files?
