I have upgraded to kubuntu20, and now, each time I try to visualise a pdf, calibre reimports it, a first windows opens ans says "reading metadata and adding to library", then a new windows pops and says "duplicate found", then if I clic on ok, a new entry is shown in calibre.

The only way to read the pdf is to to alt+v and choose the okular reader, which is now realy conveniant.

I have uninstalled calibre with apt remove purge
Then reinstalled it manually with the guidelines provided in calibre site (ubuntu version was calibre4.99 and now it's version 4.16)

I have another calibre version on arch linux and no issue with kde.

Haven't found an option to modify this behavior...
