0.6.9 Linux Install Issue

Has something changed between version of .8 and .9 which might account for this install error?

Yeah a new VM in which the installer is built. The installer does work for me in a couple of distros I tested. What distro are you using?

Hmm probably that module is installed in my system PYPATH so I didn't see that error when testing. Expect fixed installers in a few hours

Great work. I did a check-database-integity call (I know its advanced but well ..) it failed. I propose to replace the path with ~
Here is the error I got:
Traceback (most recent call last):
File "/home/kovid/work/calibre/src/calibre/gui2/dialogs/config/__init__.py", line 747, in run
File "/home/kovid/work/calibre/src/calibre/library/database2.py", line 1706, in check_integrity
OperationalError: no such table: sqlite_sequence

Obvious isn't it

(running Ubuntu 9.04 uptodate)

nota bene: dropping the database & reinstall did not do the job

Angry

mmm Another bug in 0.6.10. When viewing the news (old news < 0.6.8 and new ones):
ERROR: ERROR: Unhandled exception: <b>AttributeError</b>:'NoneType' object has no attribute 'upper'

Traceback (most recent call last):
File "/home/kovid/work/calibre/src/calibre/gui2/main.py", line 1424, in view_book
AttributeError: 'NoneType' object has no attribute 'upper'

Well I dropped my Calibre folder and so dropped the database, did a reinstall and it seems to work oke again.
No I did not, after a while ( wel I did the integrity check again) same error. Launching the publications external (from the folder so not by the calibre entry) workes fine.
Restarting does the job untill ... that integrity check which fails.https://www.mobileread.com/forums/images/icons/icon8.gif
