Editing an ebook (epub in my case, probably all types though) doesn't work, you get a pop up with an error message instead. Seems to be this bug: https://bugs.launchpad.net/calibre/+bug/1615824 Corrected by this patch: https://github.com/kovidgoyal/calibre/commit/0e11f80cf6b17a4c526dd9b5ed6abb3d020bfadc TLDR; PyQt incompatibility. I just cp'd calibre-2.63.0.ebuild as calibre-2.66.0.ebuild in a local overlay and things are fixed. Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. right on ebook, click edit 2. in the new window, on the left column, double click on a file to edit 3. look at the pop up error message with anger hoping it'll go away Actual Results: no book editing Expected Results: book editing This is on ~amd64 installation with dev-python/PyQt5-5.7
calibre < 2.65.0 is no longer available in tree so no longer affected. It was fixed anyway in: https://gitweb.gentoo.org/repo/gentoo.git/commit/?id=4820929e66a8ecb6098e7448eed6e7795d5924f7 commit 4820929e66a8ecb6098e7448eed6e7795d5924f7 Author: Manuel Rüger <mrueg@gentoo.org> AuthorDate: Wed Sep 7 19:49:12 2016 Commit: Manuel Rüger <mrueg@gentoo.org> CommitDate: Wed Sep 7 19:49:12 2016 app-text/calibre: Version bump to 2.66.0 Package-Manager: portage-2.3.0 app-text/calibre/Manifest | 1 + app-text/calibre/calibre-2.66.0.ebuild | 251 +++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++ 2 files changed, 252 insertions(+) create mode 100644 app-text/calibre/calibre-2.66.0.ebuild
