hmm, I did as you suggested Kovid, and I was able to polish a book. But then I tried 1 where I had changed the cover, and it failed again.

Spoiler:

The error log still mentions kepub plugins, so I removed them and tried again, but still no joy.

Spoiler:

I'm going to try complete uninstall and reinstall, see if that works.
