[Evolution] evolution-addressbook-export - Couldn't load addressbook NULL

[Ng Oon-Ee <ngoonee gmail com>]

Hi all,

Basically this happens:-

[ngoonee ngoonee-laptop /usr/lib/evolution/2.30]$ ./evolution-addressbook-export --format=csv
(evolution-addressbook-export:25635): e-data-server-WARNING **: e_source_get_uri () called on source with no 
absolute URI!
(evolution-addressbook-export:25635): e-data-server-WARNING **: e_source_get_uri () called on source with no 
absolute URI!
(evolution-addressbook-export:25635): libebook-WARNING **: e-book.c:2245: cannot get book from factory: 
Invalid source
(evolution-addressbook-export:25635): evolution-addressbook-tools-WARNING **: Couldn't load addressbook NULL

This used to work (at least with 2.28), and I relied on this for my
merging script with my jpilot contacts database. Googling for the
various error messages tend to turn up 2006 information unrelated to
what I'm doing right now with 2.30.

Any suggestions?

Thanks,
Ng Oon-Ee

P.S. - Does anyone know of a command-line method of IMPORTING contacts?
Or are we expected to use evolution as a GUI-only app (severely
restricting what we can automate with our own scripts).
