So, no bug. But we do have a workaround to fix the problem caused by Apple. Marvin still works… even if you no longer care for the way it works.
That's why there are beta copies of the OS to be released so the developers can make sure the program works with the current OS.

calibre did the same thing when it moved from Python 2 to Python 3 and also when it changed version of QT. Is it the fault of Kovid that some plugins no longer work with calibre 7?

It's ABANDONWARE! Marvin was abandoned as well as the plugins that will not work with calibre 7.
