Add contacts with VCF files

[kebab]

Hi, is there an easy way to import contacts from a vcf file?
I can't use simcard (different format) and I don't want a Google account.

Import contacts from VCF file
Syncevolution has been removed from upstream Debian, in the meantime it is straightforward to import contacts from a VCF file via Evolution tooling. First install evolution:

Code:

sudo apt install evolution

Before you import the file you will need to set scale-to-fit for Evolution on, otherwise the import dialog page is unusable.

Code:

scale-to-fit Evolution on

After this I opened the .vcf file via the Files app, it auto-launched the import dialoug. After importing I removed the Evolution app, this step is optional:

Code:

sudo apt remove evolution

Code:

sudo apt autoremove

THANK YOU!!   It's kind of sad that I still have to do this 2 years later as there's no import button besides using a cloud in gnome-contacts, but I am grateful I am able to import at all
