I have just released version 1.17.6 of the plugin. This is mainly a bug fix release covering the bugs reported and the beta's that have been released since the last release.

The changes in this release are:

Change: Remove Qt compileUi as no longer used and blocking calibre6/Qt6.
Fix: Missed a spot where need to use "current_friendly_name" for MTP devices
Fix: PocketBook - Workaround issues with nulls in database and links.
Fix: Change regex used for Kindle "Clippings.txt" to case insensitive. Kindle set to pt_BR uses lower case version of strings.
Fix: Threadsafe method of getting device name for MTP devices on Linux.

This should be calibre 6/Qt6 compatible. I did most of the work earlier in the year, and had just a couple of things left. But, I haven't done much testing with the calibre 6 beta. What I did do, worked. If anyone tests with the beta, please report any issues. Or that it works perfectly.

It should also be compatible with older versions. But, I have only tested with 4.23. It will probably work with 3.48, but, I don't know about older versions.

As usual, calibre will announce the update in the next hour or so. If there are any problem, please report them here.
