gnome-contacts-search-provider crashed with signal 5 in g_variant_new_va()

Contacts crashes if I change some contact information using browser.
I don't know if that's the only cause, but this happened to me recently

Status changed to 'Confirmed' because the bug affects multiple users.

Even before the search provider crashes, it seems that Gnome Shell cannot search for contacts correctly, if in the activities screen I start typing a contact name, sometimes the contact appears in the search results, sometime it doesn't. This happens every time and without the crash described in this bug...
