@Lionel: Evolution does indeed work just fine for me.

I no longer get "No SDBC driver was found".

[1] There is an issue with the Mozilla/Netscape/SeaMonkey/Thunderbird connections. I have both SeaMonkey (my primary) and Thunderbird. Both are direct Mozilla installs (non-distro) & the profiles reside in normal:
~/.mozilla/seamonkey
~/.thunderbird
However, LO defaults to the SeaMonkey address book when Thunderbird/Icedove is selected. But of course that is for bug report other than this one.

Regarding mixes of LO distro issues: It would simplify things greatly if those issues remain in the distro's reporting system (e.g., launchpad etc). The Ubuntu launchpad issue is:
<https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/openoffice.org/+bug/93546>
[Address data sources missing] Note this bug report was originally reported by me a few years ago on Ubuntu's OOo. Unfortunatly, that bug report has been intermixed with this one so much that I gave up on it some time ago.
