Re: Evolution no contacts after restore user data




I uninstalled multiple times and reinstalled to get the same problem. I
also removed a number of folders trying to get a clean install but ran
into the same problem as soon as restored again.How can I completely
remove evolution so that I can get a truly clean install where the
wizard comes up for set up again once I open it for the first time?

(This an edited copy of same problem by another person)

I ran: sudo apt-get purge evolution

Then I ran: dpkg -l | grep -i evolution

Then I uninstalled all what grep found exclusive evolution-data-server
and then I uninstalled gnome.

Somehow I managed to get evolution and gnome installed again, but
evolution with all its data was still there.

Now however the contacts function somehow works when I install new
contacts?
