Something on your network is returning an invalid response when calibre is trying to check for the latest version, probably a firewall. Just ignore that error.

Thanks, Kovid. I set a http_proxy, I close it, it's ok now.

I have another question, how to revise the author of newspaper, if you dont specify the author value, the newspaper's default author is CALIBRE,so i add this code into the recipe,but it doesnt work

 'authors':'nfzm',}

You cannot change the author.

I have answered that before, at least twice. A bit of googling is in order.
