Bug Description

When I try to edit an existing evolution contact, when I click on "OK" to save it a window pops up, saying

No such interface `org.gnome.evolution.dataserver.AddressBook' on object at path /org/gnome/evolution/dataserver/AddressBook/32736/2

The problem happens both with local and remote (google) address-book, and with any contact I try to modify, and even trying to modify a single character in any field of the contact.

Please let me know if I have to provide any other information.
