I'm using 'ebook-convert' from the command line to create .epub files without covers, and the '--no-default-epub-cover' switch works fine for this.
Now I need to make .mobi and some other formats, but Calibre fails:
Traceback (most recent call last):

Exception: Not OK to use Qt
This seems to be a known bug:

http://bugs.calibre-ebook.com/ticket/3932
With no fixes - which is fine for me, I don't need a cover -
So how do you disable cover creation for the other formats?
