wolpi · 08-18-2025, 06:21 AM

For several Calibre versions from at least 3.x up to the most recent, every output of Calibre's CLI commands like "ebook-meta" or "fetch-ebook-metadata" is either pre- or postfixed with the strings:

Integration status: True
Initialized urlfixer

so I have to postprocess the output to get rid of them.

My questions:
What is the informational purpose of those strings?
How can I get rid of them permanently?

Thanks!
