Well, actually it should be the same. The migrator reads all contacts from std.vcf
and copies them to $HOME/.local/share/contacts/

This is really strange, I suspect something is wrong with your Akonadi setup. As
soon as the contacts show up in the middle pane, the details should be shown
in the right most pane when clicking on a contact or contact group.

Can you close all pim applications please, open a konsole window, type in
  akonadi stop
wait until Akonadi has shut down and type
  akonadi start
wait until it has started and then start KAddressBook by typing
  kaddressbook --nofork

Are there any error messages or warnings printed on the konsole output?

And if you start the application 'akonadiconsole', click on the 'Browser' tab,
select the folder with the contact, click on one contact and choose 'Raw Payload'
on the lower right pane, is there any payload listed?

No, they are kept inside the contact, just the editing/viewing component is missing
currently.

Give us some time for polishing up the migration path :)

Ciao,
