Package: balsa
Version: 2.0.17-2
Severity: important
I have tried several possibilities to use the VCARD address book, but
I can't convince balsa to use it to store email addresses.
PREREQ
~/.gnome/GnomeCard.gcrd is polulated and working
with "gnomecard" command.
STEPS
1. Open balsa
2. Settings => Preferences tab:[address books]
3. Select button [add], type in to opened dialog box:
add new address book:
[x] Vcard Address Book (GnomeCard)
4. Press button [forward], new dialog opens:
Add Addres Book
Address Book Name: GnomeCard.gcrd
File Name: /home/foo/.gnome
[x] expand aliases as you type
Press [Add] button
5. Press [Close] in main dialog
---
6. Select email message from panel
7. Right Click email => Store Address
Press [Save] (Selected tab: Ffrom)
Error message is displayed:
Cannot write to address book
FURTHER INFORMATION
/home/foo/.gnome is drwx for user and
GnomeCard.gcrd is --rw--r--r
The ownerships are correct.
No GnomeCard application is running at the time balsa was.
