back to this issue.
I'd followed advice given and turned OFF the create/ override of original_epub when tweksing . polishing
I'd tested & it was working

as at v 1.23 it has been turned back ON in my preferences & I did not do it.

i.e. I had set
save_original_format_when_polishing = False
it had silently changed back to
save_original_format_when_polishing = True

so who / when / how ?

AM I going to have to check & re-test after every calibre update ?


or Iha I somehow not made that change STICK ?

Hmm- I change trus to false, like so
# Save original file when converting/polishing from same format to same format

save_original_format = True

save_original_format_when_polishing = False

I click apply at bottom of window, then I click apply at top left, and I get this:
calibre, version 1.23.0
ERROR: Invalid tweaks: The tweaks you entered are invalid, try resetting the tweaks to default and changing them one by one until you find the invalid setting.

Traceback (most recent call last):
File "site-packages\calibre\gui2\preferences\tweaks.py", line 421, in commit
File "<string>", line 623
Qt = <class 'PyQt4.QtCore.Qt'>
^
SyntaxError: invalid syntax

it seems that those 2 tweak value cannot be edited at all. restore defaults works, overwriting True with True , for either field gives the above error ??? so it's not really a syntax error, I am not changing anything???
