calibre 0.4.76 news errors

[alexxxm]

Hi Kovid,
I used calibre a lot in the past for fetching news, and had some problems just for Newsweek. Now with the latest install another problem appeared - I'm including the errors I get for the newsfeeds:


NYTimes, NewYorker ----------------------------------------
'NoneType' object is unsubscriptable
Detailed traceback:
Traceback (most recent call last):
File "build/bdist.linux-i686/egg/calibre/gui2/main.py", line 522, in books_uploaded
TypeError: 'NoneType' object is unsubscriptable

but just if the Reader is plugged in - if it isnt, the feed is downloaded, and there's no problem in uploading it later

Thile for Newsweek the error is this:

Newsweek ----------------------------------------
safe_unicode() takes exactly 2 arguments (1 given)
Detailed traceback:
Traceback (most recent call last):
File "build/bdist.linux-i686/egg/calibre/gui2/main.py", line 749, in news_fetched
File "build/bdist.linux-i686/egg/calibre/gui2/main.py", line 1129, in conversion_job_exception
TypeError: safe_unicode() takes exactly 2 arguments (1 given)




Some other feeds run fine (e.g. NY Review of Books), but I didnt test them all...

thanks for your help & time !

Can you open a ticket. I'm going to be busy for the next few says, so I'll forget otherwise.
