calibre 0.6 betas now available - Page 17

Can't wait!

kovidgoyal · 06-19-2009, 01:24 AM

Released beta 7 after a rather frantic 36 hours in which I fixed over 40 bugs (a personal best :-) ) In addition over a dozen bug fixes by user_none, several recipe updates/new recipes by darkom and a couple of MOBI indexing bugs squashed by gregory riker.

The two major remaining bugs that I know of are the broken collections when transferring to the 505/700 and tuning of the LRF output.

Still all these bug fixes probably exposed new bugs, so test away

Now off to relax with this month's Atlantic

He can take a break once he's fixed the lrf and 505 stuff. And not a second before then.

Whoops, spoke to soon. 0.6b7 completely breaks bulk conversion of files. If I do a batch of 150 or so, it converts #1, #2, and #150 fine, but all the others fail:

Code:

Convert book 149 of 150 (u'Creative Couplings Book 2')
Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "worker.py", line 103, in <module>
  File "worker.py", line 90, in main
  File "calibre\gui2\convert\gui_conversion.pyo", line 17, in gui_convert
  File "calibre\ebooks\conversion\plumber.pyo", line 566, in run
  File "calibre\ebooks\conversion\plumber.pyo", line 552, in setup_options
  File "calibre\ebooks\conversion\plumber.pyo", line 514, in read_user_metadata
IOError: [Errno 2] No such file or directory: 'c:\\docume~1\\owner\\locals~1\\temp\\calibre_0.6.0b7_vxl1jp.opf'

Note that ALL of the .opf files in the error messages have the same name, rather than different names, which could be the reason.

Calibre itself eventually crashes after a few minutes of generating all those error boxes with 0xc0000fd.

Can we get LRF conversion please? It would be nice to convert LRF to other formats.

kovidgoyal · 06-19-2009, 10:24 AM

Oops, I'll upload b8 in a bit with fixed bulk conversion. As for LRF conversion, I have too many higher priority things to do,I'm afraid. But patches are welcome

ldolse · 06-19-2009, 10:56 AM

Zipped html import is only partially fixed, I reopened that bug. I'm only seeing html files that are part of an uncompressed epub being rezipped.

Also seeing another new bug - regression from beta 6 - where I can't convert from zipped html to epub because beta 7 seems to be extraordinarily picky about which css fields and values are acceptable. What makes it particularly odd is I'm working with css files that were generated by beta 6/7 Lit->epub conversion.

Kovidgoyal,

I noticed that you've added Ph.D. to your tagline. I take it that your defense went well. Congratulations, and welcome to the club.

sirbruce beat me to it, but b8 is now released with a fix for bulk conversion, EPUB output and bebook device support.

pars_andy · 06-19-2009, 02:56 PM

Hi,

Is this release supposed to fix font resizing for LRF files? I've just tried converting a file and it doesn't appear to be working?

kovidgoyal · 06-19-2009, 03:17 PM

No LRF output optimization is still to be done

pars_andy · 06-19-2009, 04:43 PM

Ah ok. No worries. The beta has come a long way in a very short space of time. For me at least it's now very stable.
