inconsistency in contacts

Hi all,

I've been trying to get rid of some inconsistencies in my contacts
between PDA and evolution. I rebuilt all packages from svn yesterday,
and I've been syncing today. I had some contacts on my PDA that did not
show in evolution.

So I deleted the partnership, and created it again. After syncing, I
had lots of duplicate contacts in evolution, and a few duplicates on the
PDA.

one contact (let's say ***@here.com) had one entry in the PDA and two on
evolution. I deleted the first evolution entry, resynced, and the
contact is still in my PDA.

another contact (let's say ***@here.com) had one entry in the PDA and
two on evolution. I deleted the _second_ evolution entry, resynced, and
now the contact isn't in my PDA, but one copy is still in evolution.

So somehow some of these duplicates are not synced for some reason. How
do I make both parties just sync everything?

many thanks!

Can you please:

1) Let me know what version of Opensync are you running
2) provide me with a sync-engine log for the above sequence?

Many thanks,

John.
