Details
Description:
The program crashes when I click on "Edit Metadata". If I install Calibre using their binary and instructions on their site I don't have this issue so my assumption is a missing dependency or mismatched version of something. Additional info: * package version(s): 4.23.0-1 Steps to reproduce: Open Calibre -> Click on "Edit Metadata" |
This task depends upon

The previous commit works fine, this commit crashes.
Not really sure what's going on here. This is incredibly weird.
What DE or WM do you use? (FWIW I use Cinnamon.) Can you get it to work if you unset these variables?
I do not understand how this innocent little LineEdit results in a Qt crash... It's possible the upstream developer might have some idea, I mentioned it at https://bugs.launchpad.net/calibre/+bug/1892646
I backported it into the current package.
There is nothing actionable to do here and calibre is successfully worked around, so sure, let's close it.
