Angry Can't add book (case conflict)
Hi,

Calibre 0.8.26

I am trying to add the ebook "Smallest Dragonboy - Anne McCaffrey.epub" to my collection. When I add the book. calibre shows me the new book, but I can't open it with the error "has no available formats".
If I look into the calibre library folder, there are two new directories:
"Anne Mccaffrey (Case Conflict 1)" and "Anne Mccaffrey (Case Conflict 2)"

My questions:
  • Why is there no error popping up, telling me there is a problem?
  • How am I supposed to add the book, if I don't have a clue, what the problem is?

It has something to do with case, but what?

I have no clue, what to do, a google search shows a bug report, where changing the case in Letters of the title of a book leads to the same phenomenon. All Kovid said is: "Your problem for using Linux."
Well, he used nicer words to the same effect.

I would be very grateful, if someone could give me a clue.
Sven
