Could it be that your EDS databases are currently still empty after a
fresh install? For a long time, SyncEvolution has not asked EDS to
create database when opening when the database seemed to exist already.
It turned out that in a fresh install, system databases seem to exist
but still need to be created.

1.3 will do that:

* Evolution: always create databases (PTCOM-113)

  Always try to create address book or calendar database, because even
  if there is a source there's no guarantee that the actual database
  was created already; the original logic for only setting this when
  explicitly requesting a new database therefore failed in some cases.

  This problem affected users who had never created anything locally
  and wanted to use SyncEvolution to migrate their data. Now that
  works without having to create dummy entries first.

As a workaround you need to create dummy data via Evolution.
