good morning all, the convert utility has just stop working with the error msg below...is this a python 2 vs. 3 issue that I found old references to, or is there something anyone recognizes...it is Calibre 5.1 on linux and it throws the same error in the GUI



thanks, and any help appreciated,

rikm
