5) Open Book 123 in another browser, one that has never connected to the server (use a private profile or clear caches, etc)
6) Book 123 does not have the edits from step (4)

already done . read my previous posts and do the steps to reproduce. they are not identical to the above but are fit for purpose.

Steps to reproduce the bug
1 request a book from content server & get it onto a reader
ANY EBUB WILL DO
2 then edit that book [ back in calibre library]. Make some obvious easy to find alteration
3, then delete it from target device and request it again ( without shutting down calibre. )the unedited version will be re-delivered
now shut down and restart calibre, delete the book from device and request it a 3rd time. the CS will now deliver the latest version
or GIVE AN ALTERNATIVE EXPANATION FOR THE "SCHRODINGERS TABLET" outcome, if you want to stay in denial.
i know what i exerinced: a book (version A) that no longer existed as a file in the library was delivered to a device that had been previously OFF, OFF since
before the book was placed in the library, and had remained off while the book was edited from version A to version B. I await your non-magical explanation of how that could have happened.
