Presumably something qt6 got into master. |
Whenever you switch from V5 to the beta or back you must force recompilation of all the .ui files in calibre. Normally changes are automatically detected so that the *_ui.py files are regenerated, but the dates are 'wrong' when switching between branches so the files aren't rebuilt.
The problem is discussed in posts starting with this one.
I know of two ways to force rebuilding the files:
- Delete all *_ui.py files in calibre.gui2, then run calibre-debug -g.
- Set the environment variable
Code:
set CALIBRE_FORCE_BUILD_UI_FORMS=1
before you run calibre-debug -g. This is what I do by setting the env var in the script I use to start calibre in debug mode. It tells calibre to ignore the timestamps and rebuild the _ui.py files.
