[Evolution] Bug#361995: evolution: Creating new address book
creates only an alias, but deleting deletes the original folder

Package: evolution
Version: 2.4.2.1-2
Severity: critical
Justification: causes serious data loss
X-Debbugs-Cc: bensmail at gmx.net
When I create a new address book, this only creates an alias to an exisiting
one (the last in the list of those available - but tried only once).
Deleting this new (alias) addressbook, however, does also delete the real
data behind it. Trying to access the original folder result in the following
error message:
We were unable to open this addressbook. Please check that the path
<my-home>/.evolution/addressbook/local exists and that you have
permission to access it.
Steps to reproduce:
new -> addressbook
delete the new addressbook
the content of the aliased folder will be lost
Best regads
