Hi,

When adding an epub by dragging and dropping on a Mac, I get the following warning:

calibre, version 5.99.10
ERROR: Cannot add books: Failed to add some books, click "Show details" for more information.

Worker process crashed while executing job
Traceback (most recent call last):
File "calibre/utils/ipc/pool.py", line 108, in recv
File "calibre/utils/ipc/__init__.py", line 24, in eintr_retry_call
File "multiprocessing/connection.py", line 221, in recv_bytes
File "multiprocessing/connection.py", line 419, in _recv_bytes
File "multiprocessing/connection.py", line 388, in _recv
EOFError

It adds the same book in mobi format ok. The epub adds ok in 5.44.

EDIT: by disabling a plugin whose name can't be mentioned here, all worked well!

I also noted in the beta that in Edit Mode, the preset background and foreground colours in the Preview Pane did not honour the setting already in 5.44. They had to be reentered. No big issue, but I t thought it worth reporting.

Many thanks for the wonderful program and all your work Govid.
