It has not, to my knowledge, been fixed. Rather than going through all of that though, it may help to find the contact manually (scroll to wherever it would be) then edit and save the changes - that worked for me.
That said, I've stopped using Evolution. It has a lot of handy tools, but has given me seemingly endless trouble. -- Evolution need to be restarted to list a new contact https://launchpad.net/bugs/30843 -- desktop-bugs mailing list desktop-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/desktop-bugs
