Don't know which db3 version is required, but it seems I have 3.3.11
installed (shipped with Mandrake 9.1):

$ rpm -qa | grep db3
libdb3.3-3.3.11-13mdk

Well, there is the Contacts database missing. There should be a file
addressbook.db in this directory.

As (if) there is really no such file, you cannot loose anything. You
could try removing the Contacts and recreating it (both using
Evolution). You will have to set them in the Settings as autocompletion
source again.


What does your folder-metadata.xml files contain, do they look sane?

$ cat evolution/local/Contacts/folder-metadata.xml
<?xml version="1.0"?>
<efolder>
        <type>contacts</type>
        <description>Contacts</description>
</efolder>
