Does anyone know how I can merge/deduplicate contacts in a .vcf vcard file?

A nice easy graphical option would be ace but I have some terminal experience if necessary. I’ve tried vcardtools.py but I couldn’t work out how to use it.

Any help would be greatly appreciated,

Thanks!

    I think I’ve found a workaround. In the Fossify Contacts app on my phone, in the settings I checked the box marked ‘merge duplicate contacts’. I then used the AOSP Contacts app to export them as a .vcf which I imported into Thunderbird, which is now showing no duplicates. I don’t know why the AOSP app is able to export without duplicates, even though it’s the Fossify app which has the ‘merge duplicate contacts’ option but there you have it…
