            Bug ID: 365193
           Summary: vCard4 export must use RELATED field instead of custom
                    X- field
           Product: kaddressbook
           Version: unspecified
          Platform: Gentoo Packages
                OS: Linux
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: normal
          Priority: NOR
         Component: general
          Assignee: kdepim-bugs at kde.org
          Reporter: kdebugs at equaeghe.nospammail.net
                CC: tokoe at kde.org

When exporting a contact to vCard4 with a spouse field, the file contains the
line

X-KADDRESSBOOK-X-SpousesName:testy toster

In vCard4, there is the RELATED field for such information (see
https://tools.ietf.org/html/rfc6350#section-6.6.6):

RELATED;TYPE=spouse;VALUE=text:testy toster

(The vcard4-implementation gives you the opportunity to do away with custom
fields entirely; given that addressbooks are commonly synced, such fields do
more harm than good.)

Reproducible: Always
