AttributeError: 'DeleteAction' object has no attribute '_remove_format_from_ids'

Nick Payne · 10-14-2022, 02:41 PM

I just ran a convert on one of the epubs in my library to smarten the punctuation. After checking that the conversion had worked OK, I went to delete the ORIGINAL_EPUB format of the book, and got the error below. When I check the folder in the Calibre library containing the book, it has both the .epub and .original_epub files there.

Running Calibre 6.7 on Windows 11. I've run the same process many times with older versions of Calibre, and not had this error before.

Code:

calibre, version 6.7.0

I just experienced the same problem upon updating to Calibre v6.7.0.

I've attached a composite screenshot here.
