Yes, I used the binary installer... sort of. I run "checkinstall python -c ..." to create an .rpm file that I then installed. (It complained about missing .so.0 dependencies, but I ignored them, after all the previous step had been fine, and I had already .so.X libraries installed, I assume this is a "glitch" of checkinstall.)
epub-meta works fine, it gives (after 30 seconds or more) Title, Author(s) and Book Producer. Importing the PDFs from the GUI results in "Unknown" Author and filename as book title. Maybe it's because of some timeout? But I didn't notice it took any longer to import PDFs...

The best way to "update metadata" from a new format is to create a new entry, insert the old format into the new entry and delete the old entry.

I was afraid of that
