Thousands of lines of output - I'll run it again and try to capture it if you 
need it, but it's very repetitive.  There are dozens of lines such as

kaddressbook(27110)/libakonadi 
Akonadi::EntityTreeModelPrivate::monitoredItemChanged: Got a stale 
notification for an item which was already removed. 2918 "PMXWTVxalQ.vcf"                                                                        
kaddressbook(27110)/libakonadi 
Akonadi::EntityTreeModelPrivate::monitoredItemChanged: Got a stale 
notification for an item which was already removed. 2919 "PraYgjNuW.vcf

and occasional ones like

[akonadiserver] request for item 2938 processed, error: ""

but I didn't see anything else helpful.

Yes indeed.

Yes, I saw two distribution lists, each with a list of record identifiers, so 
that's very good news.

No problem.  It looks as though it is something in the display  that's not 
correct, rather than with the actual data migration.

Wait!  It suddenly occurred to me to run kaddressbook standalone - and this 
time I could see the contacts.  Encouraged by this, I tried again within 
kontact - and I can see them there too.  The Edit screen contains the relevant 
details as well.

It looks as though something in the tests you gave me have triggered something 
that wasn't working previously.  Does that give you any clue?
