I had the same problem after update Kubuntu 11.04 to 11.10. Finally I  
copied a backup of home and suddenly the contacts are back again, I still  
don't know where they were gone. After I exported them as vCard, changed  
back to the new home and imported them again.

Here I'm told to use ~/.local/share/contacts/ in the future because  
~/.kde/share/apps/kabc/stdvcf is not up to date.
