Conversion bug, epub picking up wrong cover

It's been a couple of weeks since I last did any conversions, but I just ran a couple of html files through to convert to epub, and a problem I mentioned a few Calibre versions back is still happening: the new conversions are picking up the cover from a different book which I purchased a couple of months ago.

Attached is a sample--a Robt Sheckley story, which came out with the cover of a Cordwainer Smith novel. As far as I can recall, I never did any conversions on the Smith book, though I did add it to Calibre in both .prc and .lrf format.

A side issue: I added the Sheckley html file to Calibre in one action along with some others (using the Add Books button). One of the other files was a Heinlein story. When I first looked at the Sheckley epub in the Calibre Viewer, I found that it not only had the wrong cover, it had the wrong story! The Heinlein story had been imported under both names. I fixed that by deleting, then adding back, from within the edit-metadata window.

Oh--I was using Calibre 5.13.
