Yeah I'm hoping all the crashing problems are finally fixed. Needs more testing with PDF files though.

All the crashing seems to be fixed!!! 6.16.
Thanks Kovid!!!! I just imported 80pdf files while running an antivirus scan and had 0 crashes. The books were imported very quickly as well. Totally Awesome. Thanks, Jason I Want to be your LatexSalesMan!!!!! |

Works nicely on a Mac under Snow Leopard. Crashes experienced with 6.15 are gone. Added several books to my calibre library and transferred several other books to my wife's Kindle without problems. Everything seems smooth, though this version (and several preceding ones) don't remember the subdirectory where downloaded books are stored -- just the parent directory.

0.6.16, on an hour-old fresh install of Jaunty (Ubuntu 9.04).
Crashed out completely trying to download news (Honolulu Advertiser). Didn't even get the pop-up window with the error trace. Anything I can do, I will. m a r ps: it's been doing it with all news downloads since 6.14, and while I was still on Intrepid. |

0.6.16 crashes (on XP) after 1-2 seconds, before the window even opened, tried a remove/install, no change in behavior, even removing the db wont help. :/
Reverted back to .12 because .14 gives errors on importing new files (drag 'n drop) (Having Sigil open during Calibre installation gives errors.) |
