Hi,
it depends how you copied the files. Supposing you are touching internal
application data, you may see such trouble. I expect DConf has it the
same as Evolution, if you really want to change internal files, make
sure the application is not running. In case of evolution, it's any
evolution* process (ps ax | grep evolution). For accounts it's
evolution-source-registry. I would logout from your GUI/Desktop session,
switch to a text terminal, make sure no evolution (nor dconf) processes
are running, and only then copy the internal files. Then logout the text
console and try to login the GUI/Desktop. It's still on your own risk,
of course.
Bye,
Milan
