[Bug 42232] Re: all contacts lost - address book resource truncated to zero

[PascalCavy]

This bug is still present. I don't know yet how to reproduce.  I'll try
what you suggest in the preceeding comment.

I just started my PC 10 mns ago. Kontact starts as part of my automatic kde session restore proccessing. And I found my kde contact resources dir like this :
-rw-rw---- 1 pascal pascal      0 2006-05-12 04:55 pc_perso.vcf

So you can see I just lost my main address book pc_perso.vcf at
2006-05-12 04:55. This time correspond at the automatic shutdown of KDE
by kshutdown last night.

On the other way you can also see a temporary address book file left
there pc_perso.vcfsruDSb.new five days before.

Maybe the bug is due to kontact beeing shutdowned at the wrong moment
when an address book is rotated...
