           Summary: When a newly created contact is saved to an address

error message is displayed in the bottom right hand corner of the screen:

1.1.  "CONTACTS -> ASSORTED -> 02

 ->->2: Request for saving the address bookfailed. Probably locked by another
application.".

2. Please note that "CONTACTS -> ASSORTED -> 02" is the name of one of the
three address books that was created by the user in KDE Kontact.

3. No request was made to the application by the user to save the
aforementioned address book nor was any new contact created in the said address
book. The new contact was created in an entirely different address book in KDE
Contact .

4. The aforementioned error message continues to repeat until the system is
restarted.

5. Also, please note that the newly created contact was NOT shown in the list
of contacts contained in the address book in which it was created.

6. This problem happens some times and not some other times. Nevertheless, it
does happen quite frequently.

1. Create a new contact in an address book.
2. Save the new contact.
Actual Results:  
1. The error message mentioned above is repeatedly displayed by the system.
2. The newly created contact is nowhere to be found.

Expected Results:  
1. There should be no error message.
2. The newly created contact must be found in the address book in which it was
created.
