Hi,

Found the bug. We grabbed a writelock and then tried to grab a readlock when we already had the writelock, so it hung in a deadlock. I just committed a fix for this to Sigil master.

It will be part of a hopefully quick future update.

Thanks for you bug report.

After adding or replacing cover.jpeg, invoking the tool just hangs indefinitely with the Windows “circle working” prompt. This is relatively minor stuff for such a big under the hood conversion. Great Job!!

I’ve tested on my Vista Home Premium Machine with SP2 & all Microsoft KBs installed and will also try to duplicate the glitch on Windows 7 when I get the chance. More testing to come…
