ePub to PDB (eReader) failing miserably

I am trying to convert an ePub file to PDB and it fails big time with the latest Calibre.

Code:
1% Converting input to HTML...
InputFormatPlugin: EPUB Input running
on E:\E-Books\Sorted\ebook.epub
Found HTML cover titlepage.xhtml
Parsing all content...
Property: Invalid value for "CSS Level 2.1" property: italic [136:5: text-decoration]
Python function terminated unexpectedly
  invalid literal for int() with base 10: '1a' (Error Code: 1)
Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "site.py", line 103, in main
  File "site.py", line 85, in run_entry_point
  File "site-packages\calibre\ebooks\conversion\cli.py", line 254, in main
  File "site-packages\calibre\ebooks\conversion\plumber.py", line 794, in run
  File "site-packages\calibre\ebooks\conversion\plumber.py", line 920, in create_oebbook
  File "site-packages\calibre\ebooks\oeb\reader.py", line 72, in __call__
  File "site-packages\calibre\ebooks\oeb\reader.py", line 592, in _all_from_opf
  File "site-packages\calibre\ebooks\oeb\reader.py", line 458, in _toc_from_opf
  File "site-packages\calibre\ebooks\oeb\reader.py", line 370, in _toc_from_ncx
  File "site-packages\calibre\ebooks\oeb\reader.py", line 334, in _toc_from_navpoint
ValueError: invalid literal for int() with base 10: '1a'
The command I am using is...

Code:
ebook-convert ebook.epub .pdb --remove-paragraph-spacing
even without --remove-paragraph-spacing it's failing.

Thanks. That fixed it. Now I have a different problem. The detected ToC doesn't work. No ToC is generated.'

Also, using --remove-paragraph-spacing doesn't work. It does remove the extra paragraph spaces put in, but it also removes ALL the spaces. And not all the indents are correct. Can the PDB output please be fixed so the output looks like the input?
