As title, I'm trying to port it to riscv, and found it cannot convert .pdb and .qxp files on both x86_64 and riscv platforms. error messages: ``` file command: ./example.pdb: AportisDoc/PalmDOC E-book "example", 2571 bytes uncompressed ./example.qxp: Intel Quark Express Document (English) bash -x log: + ebook2odt example.pdb example.b.odt ERROR : Couldn't convert the document + ebook2epub example.pdb example.b.epub ERROR : Couldn't convert the document + qxp2odg example.qxp example.q.odg ERROR: We have no confidence that you are giving us a valid document. + qxp2epub example.qxp example.q.epub ERROR: We have no confidence that you are giving us a valid document. ```

Thank you for your comprehensive report. To me it sounds like a bug in the software provided upstream or a misconfiguration in your system [3]. Does the same source work for you on another distribution? If it works on other distributions, but not on Gentoo Linux, I suggest to discuss this problem on a related mailing list, forum or IRC channel. I have had very good experience on the Gentoo IRC [1], of course there are also forums and mailing lists. [2] We will likely close this bug here, because I do not see a relation to the gentoo ebuild or the way Gentoo handles this special software package. Please provide more information, if I am wrong. [1] https://www.gentoo.org/get-involved/irc-channels/ [2] https://www.gentoo.org/support/ [3] look up the upstream forums; search in their bug tracker

I found no configuration file about this app on my system, and very thanks for your mention and I have sent an email to upstream mail list to ask. > Does the same source work for you on another distribution?

Thanks for you reply again and I have no more information to provide.
I haven't got any reply from the mail list, so I asked again in the ticket system of sourceforge here https://sourceforge.net/p/libwpd/tickets/20/ And got a reply, 1) > .pdb file may be damaged. but I don't think so. 2) > .qxp file may be created by an unsupported version of QuarkXpress. I have no idea about this.
