OK, but note that the VM README says

*******************************************************************************
VERSION INFO

The VM versions 8.2.0 and up are designed to work with:

- XEmacs version 21.2 or higher

- Gnu Emacs version 22.1 or higher

They are not meant for use with any version of Emacs that does not
have MULE support.

The users of vcard's need a vcard.el package with vcard-api-version
2.0.  (A suitable version of vcard.el is included in this distribution.)
