Hopefully this is correct; I'm not familiar (as yet) with understanding
all of the different configuration parameters expressed in this sort of
output. Using the command, the output is:
[...]
Evolution Address Book = Evolution Contacts = evolution-contacts:
Personal (local:system) <default>
Verisign (ldap://directory.verisign.com:389/??one)
That's as it should be.

I deleted the contacts and tried importing the *.vcf file.
However, that doesn't work, and evolution just seems to hang.
That's a bug in Evolution. Which version are you using?
Another relief. Evolution version:
evolution-3.4.4-2 on Fedora 17
I'm running it on laptop and a desktop.

Is there a way?
You'll have to use the "killall" command, like this:
killall -9 evolution-addressbook-factory
So it is inelegant.
Make sure that Evolution is not running while you do this.
If importing via Evolution after killing the process and deleting the
files fails, then you can try another way of importing the file. Kill
+remove as before, but then run:
syncevolution --import <your file>.vcf @default addressbook
Everything worked; I tried both of your recommended methods (1-via
evolution; 2-via syncevolution).
Much thanks for all of the help and quick replies. I have more questions,
but I'll put them under a separate thread.
