Ok, then? If I want restore for example only Evo, TB, FF, .ssh from my home's backup of my old PC (old.dom.tld) dead, on my new PC, fresh installed with some Linux and Evo, TB, FF version, called "new.dom.tld"? For TB, FF and .ssh is simple: I copy from home's backup the folders ~/.thunderbird, ~/.mozilla, and ~/.ssh to new PC and all work fine. For Evo, what folder I must copy? >From this info: https://help.gnome.org/users/evolution/stable/data-storage.html.en I understand want to copy this folder: ~/.local/share/evolution ~/.config/evolution ~/.cache/evolution ~/.config/dconf (*) But into ~/.config/dconf are stored all DCONF setting of all other application, an in this case I want to copy only Evo settings, not the rest. Also, if I copy (rsync) the tree or more Evo's folders from backup of old PC to new PC, I understand there is some selinux issue to resolve... Some can suggest how to do a full restore of Evo settings and data from a backup to a new PC?
