[Evolution] File > 'Save Address Book as vCard' is greyed out

2019-09-09 Thread Garret Robinson via evolution-list
I want to backup my Address Bark (the entire address book). But when I go to 
the setting File > 'Save Address Book as vCard' it is greyed out and 
unselectable.

Why is it greyed out? How do I get it so I can select it and backup my address 
book?

What sort of address book is it?

I think it's only available for local "on this computer" address books,
it's certainly not available for Google or EWS ones.

Hi,
it's a bug. If you'd not mind to file it, thus it's not forgotten, then
it'll be appreciated. The place to file it is here:
https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/evolution/issues/new

You can right-click the address book in the left tree of the books and
pick "Save as vCard" there. It'll enable the item in the File menu as
well, at least for some time. I can reproduce what you see with ~3.34.0
too.
Thanks and bye,
Milan
