It is sometimes usefull to save the local (i.e. stored on your local hard-drive) addressbook of Ximian Evolution for backup or to use it elsewhere…
To do it, just save the following two files and you are safe:
~/evolution/local/Contacts/addressbook.db and ~/evolution/local/Contacts/addressbook.db.summary
