I migrated both 10.04 systems by copying the functional /home folder to a new 12.04 Beta system.
I had Evolution installed on the 12.04 system and when run it converted the existing 10.04 Evolution user data and config to the 12.04 version of Evolution with the results as posted above. Personally I always install a new Ubuntu release from fresh and then enable my separate /home partition. Any conversion to new structures is usually done smoothly with this method (a lot more smoothly than people doing any direct "Upgrade" from an existing working system if the last 8 years are any guide). -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Desktop Packages, which is subscribed to evolution-couchdb in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/955673 Title: Ubuntu One Contact Address Book does not migrate correctly Status in “evolution-couchdb” package in Ubuntu: New Bug description: Using Evolution on 12.04 B1 when migrating from 10.04 LTS system (existing /home folder from 10.04 used) results in CouchDB "Ubuntu One" Address Book not working on 12.04 system. Evolution version on 10.04 is 2.28.3, 12.04 version is 3.2.3. All other Address Books seem to migrate ok. Error message is: --------- This address book cannot be opened. This either means that an incorrect URI was entered, or the server is unreachable. Detailed error message: Invalid source --------- And you cannot delete this Address Book to remove the error whenever you access this book. I believe that the issue might be that CouchDB is no longer used in 12.04, but it still gets migrated from the old 10.04 /home folder setup. Given that many 10.04 LTS users may well stay with Evolution in 12.04, this could be a significant issue for those of us who will do this.
