Thanks for clarifying.

Thanks for the tip; everything was in order for both libraries when I ran the maintenance. As for the plugins, I already had some idea that the ones important to me were ready.

One plugin you should upgrade if it needs it before you upgrade Calibre is DeDRM. Make sure sure it's at 10.0.3.
The URL for 10.0.3 is https://github.com/noDRM/DeDRM_tools

I back up my configuration directory once a week (I learned the hard way a long time ago

). Thanks for the reminder on the DeDRM plugin - I was still on 7.2.1.
After all this, I successfully upgraded to 6.8 and everything looks good for now.
