TL;DR - after updating to latest versions of kde-plasma and qt, the eviewer no longer opens books
I can no longer open and books which normally open internally in the viewer. The message is:

I don't believe this is a Calibre problem "per se" but ... others may also encounter it.
Background:
I run Gentoo linux so I usually install Calibre through the Gentoo portage tree. Last week, I saw you comment about a bug fix that was included in 4.2.0 so I installed a copy into my local package tree because it hadn't made the Gentoo package tree yet. Everything (including the eviewer) worked as expected.
Today, I performed a global update of all packages including qt dependencies and kde plasma packages. QT is now rev 5.13.2. kde-plasma went from 5.17.1 to 5.17.2.
For me since the QT/kde-plasma upgrade; e-viewer no longer opens epub, fb2, lit nor mobi. They all fail with the same error as above. Only the "manifest?###########" changes.
Assuming this had something to do with Calibre's internal database, I ran library maintenance in 'check library' mode. Only these errors were found
