helloworld plugin does nothing

Here is how to replicate:

1. Ubuntu 9.10
2. Install calibre by
Quote:
sudo python -c "import urllib2; exec urllib2.urlopen('http://status.calibre-ebook.com/linux_installer').read(); main()"
3. Download the zip file suggested in documentation
4. Install it by:
Quote:
calibre-customize -a helloworld_plugin.zip
5. Open calibre, check the plugin is installed
6. Try converting an .fb2 book to epub
7. Open epub with view in specific format and check metadata

Publisher is unchanged from previous (NONE in my case)

What am I doing wrong? I'd like to scrap a plugin for postprocessing epubs after conversion to include fonts and necessary corrections. However, can't even start since the only examle python plugin I could find (helloworld) does not even work for me.

Suggestions are welcomed!
