Hej,

the problem is not really Akonadi here but the old vCard directory resource
and the way you use it.
The vCard directory resource does not allow that you put in vCards yourself,
you should always import them via KAddressBook!

To get it working with KAddressBook in 4.4 I propose the following:

  - Remove all address book resources from within KAddressBook
  - Shutdown Akonadi
  - Move your vcard directories ~/pim/contacts/... to a different place
  - Start Akonadi again
  - Start KAddressBook again
  - Create 3 new address books of type 'Personal Contacts' with the paths
      ~/pim/contacts/subcontact1
      ~/pim/contacts/subcontact2
      ~/pim/contacts/subcontact3
  - Import the vCards from your backuped, original directories _via
KAddressBook_
    into the newly created address books (File -> Import -> vCard 3.0)

Ciao,
Tobias
