Anyone else seeing issues with kaddressbook and distribution lists?
Three of our users, to my knowledge; others might not have noticed yet, have had distribution lists corrupted in their std.vcf files for no apparent reason.
For example here's a diff showing the breakage:

The ',' between each entry in the list went AWOL sometime between these two backup copies which makes kaddressbook come up with the UID as the target email address, causing a massive fail.
For fun and amusement, I hand edited the , between the entries back into the list and it all works again.
