From my understanding, the fallback random_chrome_ua() function is only available from Calibre v2.81.0 to v5.8.1 while the random_common_chrome_user_agent() function will work from v5.40.0 onwards.

So if you insist on keeping your Calibre on version 5, then you can make the latest version of this plugin work by downgrading/upgrading your Calibre to any versions that is not from v5.9.0 to v5.39.1.
