There are a lot of bug fixes and improvements in the change log, including incorporating pull requests on Apprentice Harper's GitHub that have lingered for months. Highlights include:
  • Support for the Readium LCP DRM ...
  • Issues with PDF files in Calibre 5 should be fixed (merged apprenticeharper/DeDRM_tools#1689 ).
  • Fixed tons of issues with the B&N PDF DRM removal ...
  • Issues with Obok key retrieval fixed (merged apprenticeharper/DeDRM_tools#1691).
  • Issues with obfuscated Adobe fonts fixed (fixes apprenticeharper/DeDRM_tools#1828 ).
  • Verify that the decrypted book key has the correct format. This makes it way less likely for issue apprenticeharper/DeDRM_tools#1862 to cause trouble.
  • If the Adobe owner UUID of a book being imported happens to be included in a particular key's name, try this key first before trying all the others. This completely fixes apprenticeharper/DeDRM_tools#1862, but only if the key name contains the correct UUID (not always the case, especially for keys imported with older versions of the plugin). It also makes DRM removal faster as the plugin no longer has to attempt all possible keys.
  • Add a more verbose error message when trying to remove DRM from a book with the new, not-yet-cracked version of the Adobe ADEPT DRM.
  • Added back support for Python2 (Calibre 2.0+) ...

In addition, a new pull request on Apprentice Harper's GitHub fixes the macOS problem where key retrieval fails on new installations of Kindle for Mac. So far neither Apprentice Harper nor noDRM has incorporated it into their plugins. If one of them does, it will be good news for Mac users.

ETA: noDRM merged the Mac key fix into their plugin, however they haven't released a new version yet and not clear when they will do so.
