Axolotl contact list suddenly empty and contact import does not work anymore [BUG] #1047

Open GerryT11 opened 1 year ago

Description

I use Axolotl on a daily basis and last weekend I noticed that my contact list in Axolotl was suddenly empty. I tried to reimport the contacts from the address book to the contact list, but this doesn't seem to work any more. Axolotl keeps displaying a message that "Contacts will be imported, please come back later", but nothing ever happens. Even if I try to add only 1 contact from the address book (I regularly communicate with this person via Signal), this contact doesn't get added to contact list.

Is this a new regression of Axolotl/Signal? Is there any workaround?

System: Axolotl 1.6.0 UbPorts OTA-25 Volla 22 There weren't any relevant updates in the past weeks, which IMHO could have caused this bug.
