Exclamation Calibre update breaks Calibre API
Several of my recipes broke with the latest Calibre update. They broke on BasicNewsRecipe.get_browser().

The error is:

File "<string>", line 131, in get_browser
TypeError: unbound method get_browser() must be called with BasicNewsRecipe instance as first argument (got nothing instead)

But if you look at the get_browser() example at http://manual.calibre-ebook.com/news_recipe.html, this is correct.

I could update the recipes, but it would make more sense to un-break Calibre.

You need to change your recipes to use

br = BasicNewsRecipe.get_browser(self)

Kovid, I usually agree with you, but this is silly. Your own documentation is still wrong online. Why force the recipes to change? Just undo the destructive change.

Obviously, because the "destructive" change is there for a reason.

Okay, what is the reason that justified this? It seems like there should have been less destructive ways to get to most goals.
