I have tried to modify the plugin, to works on python3 but I am not sure it is the best way.

Are you interested in converting your plugin to python3 ?
(I think it would be possible to make a plugin compatible with python2.7 and 3)
The short answer: It is recommended that you use the official release of calibre rather than the distro version. The reason, because they break things when they package it. As you can see.

The long answer is that porting calibre to Python 3 is underway. And plugins are discussed here. The Python 3 version won't be released for a while, so plugins are being ported as the author/maintainer has time. Anyone who wants to help is welcome to.
