Bug#306556: balsa: Little Brother Database support broken

[Simon Brandmair]

Package: balsa
Version: 2.3.0-2
Severity: normal

I have use the little brother database (lbdb) as an address book with 'external
query (program)'. 'Load program location' is 'lbdbq' and I have 'Expand aliases
as you type' enabled. This setting worked fine till up to version 2.2.6-1.
Now, when I compose a new message and start typing an address, balsa tries to
expand it. If balsa finds it in lbdb, it does not show that address anymore,
but just an empty line. If I select that empty line, balsa crashes:

The backtrace is:

What still works: When I want to compose a message I can click on the address
book symbol beside the To:-Field and access the lbdb address book from there
and add addresses to the message.
