Title:
  only mails of evolution backup (from previous version) restored

Status in The Evolution Mail & Calendaring Tool:
  Invalid
Status in “evolution” package in Ubuntu:
  Triaged

Bug description:
  Binary package hint: evolution

  I'm not entirely certain this is a valid bug report or a feature
  request.

  I'm trying to replicate issues I find in Lucid in Maverick.  To that
  end, I attempted to restore an evolution backup file created in Lucid
  on a Maverick  installation.  The restoration completed and mails seem
  to be fully restored, yet the contacts, calendar entries, tasks and
  memos are not restored.  Well, the files are unpacked and exist, but
  it seems the new version of evolution does not expect them there.

  Is this expected behavior?  Must I restore to the same version and
  then upgrade the entire distribution to migrate my evolution data?
  I'd find that extremely inconvenient.  But maybe I'm missing something
  else.
