Here's what is sent to SyncEvolution: BEGIN:VCARD VERSION:2.1 ... PHOTO;ENCODING=BASE64;TYPE=image/jpeg: /9j/4AAQSkZJRgABAQAAAQABAAD/2wBDAAIBAQEBAQIBAQECAgICAgQDAgICAgUEBAMEBgUGBgY ... This seems to throw off the vCard parser in libebook. Instead of sending a mime type, correct would be: Photo Format Type This property parameter is provided to specify the graphics format for the Photo property value. The property parameter includes the following values: [...] Indicates ISO JPEG format JPEG vCard 3.0 makes this more explicit and refers to http://www.iana.org/assignments/media-types/image/index.html which again uses "jpeg" and not "image/jpeg". Attached is a patch that hopefully works around the issue. It's untested because I cannot trigger this behavior. Can you apply the attached patch to your SyncEvolution installation as follows? $ sudo su # cd /usr/share/syncevolution/xml # patch -p4 </tmp/photo-type.patch patching file datatypes/02vcard-types.xml patching file scripting/04vcard-photo-value.xml Then try again with loglevel=4 as you did before. If it helps, great, if not, please send me the log file. -- Best Regards, Patrick Ohly The content of this message is my personal opinion only and although I am an employee of Intel, the statements I make here in no way represent Intel's position on the issue, nor am I authorized to speak on behalf of Intel on this matter.
