Description bonne 2007-09-19 02:04:21 UTC

Version:           0.12.5 (using KDE 3.5.7, Gentoo)
Compiler:          Target: i686-pc-linux-gnu
OS:                Linux (i686) release 2.6.19-gentoo-r5

The "Use addressbook name" option for the Display Name Source of a metacontact does not survive if the addressbook link is temporarily unavailable. If the addressbook link comes from an addressbook that is online, and unavailable then the Display Name Source is changed to "Custom" or "Contact" (I'm not sure why this varies) even when the addressbook link becomes available again. 

A preferred method would be that the "Use addressbook name" option is kept, but the stored name is used until the addressbook link becomes available again.
