Also, the following ebook-convert incantation seems to take forever here:

$ cp /usr/share/man/man1/convert.1.bz2 ./

$ bzip2 -d convert.1.bz2

$ man2html convert.1

$ python2.7 /usr/bin/ebook-convert ./convert.html convert.mobi --language en --output-profile kindle_dx

Seems to stall/CPU run at "Applying case-transforming CSS...". Also a mess of errors. This is such a small man file (or html file after man2html), so likely a CPU run or endless loop somewhere.

(Also, --language option seems to be ignored, or I'm using the wrong option due to lack of documentation?)
