Description

Adding a RELATED property, in my case a name of a person, to a contact via the UI gets converted to wrong vcard format.

To Reproduce
Steps to reproduce the behavior:

  1. Create a related to contact property via the webinterface
  2. Download the vcard via the button
  3. Open the vcf

Expected behavior
According to the RFC 6350 Section 6.6.6 it must be RELATED;TYPE=CONTACT;VALUE=text:Hans Muster for text values.

Actual behavior
Entering: Hans Muster
Result: RELATED;TYPE=CONTACT:Hans Muster
