It seems like it did produce the converted file ok? Can you check with the version in updates-testing? https://admin.fedoraproject.org/updates/FEDORA-2012-11860/calibre-0.8.63-1.fc17 In the temporary directory are only 2 files left: ./CtJfdb_worker_redirect.log ./ipc_result_1_1_1B7x0C.pickle also no mobi file in the calibre library. I moved my ~/.config/calibre folder away, just in case it is a configuration error. This did not yield to the desired result. I will try the testing version tomorrow. I tried the testing version calibre-0.8.63-1.fc17. It lead to the same error. I also tried it in a freshly installed kvm vm, still the same error. Strange, it says: MOBI output written to /tmp/calibre_0.8.50_tmp_DgOkKK/ven_R2.mobi but perhaps it removed it as incomplete. Would you be willing to file this upstream? https://bugs.launchpad.net/calibre This bug was already filed upstream. https://bugs.launchpad.net/calibre/+bug/892492 Happens only with xfce < 4.10. Workaround is deleting ~/.ICEauthority before converting the book. Ah ha. Very good detective work. I wonder if it's worth asking Xfwm4 upstream about fixing it, or if we should simply live with it until 4.10 is rolled out in all Fedora releases. ;( For me waiting is fine. I doubt someone is willing to hunt this bug down. Seems as if there are many components involved (xserver, xfce4-session). Well, xfce 4.10 is already available in my side repo: http://repos.fedorapeople.org/repos/kevin/xfce-4.10/ for fedora-16 and fedora-17. Fedora 18 will ship with 4.10. I guess there's nothing much for us to do here... |
