As I still used KDEPIM 4.4.11 as of what Wheezy includes now, the personal
addressbook worked nicely. It saves contacts into ~/.local/share/akonadi just
fine.
AFAIR I migrated back then by having a traditional address book with std.vcf
and the personal addressbook (vcard folder) with ~/.local/share/akonadi and
just copied all contacts over. Then I removed the old one.
The address book in KDEPIM 4.4.11 already uses Akonadi.
Korganizer can optionally use Akonadi via a resource bridge. I had it running
with Akonadi, although it was a bit cumbersome to configure. I think I switched
it to Akonadi configuration as I had some issues with the old configuration from
older KDEPIM releases.
