Strange. I'll see if I can duplicate here... I've noticed that the "fetch news" feature works for some sources, like The Guardian. But I don't know whether that's because for this it doesn't use the feedparser. An example of one that fails is "Chile -> El Mostrador." Hope this helps. FWIW .. at least in my system the latest calibre RPM is faulty. # ls -l /usr/lib64/calibre/calibre/web/feeds/feedparser.py -rw-r--r-- 1 root root 0 Oct 6 19:45 /usr/lib64/calibre/calibre/web/feeds/feedparser.py Note the "0" One of many workarounds: # yumdownloader --source calibre # rpm -ivh calibre-0.9.1-1.fc17.src.rpm # rpmbuild -ba ~/rpmbuild/SPECS/calibre.spec Installed required devel rpms and repeat previous stop # cp ~/rpmbuild/BUILD/calibre/src/calibre/web/feeds/feedparser.py.unbundle-feedparser /usr/lib64/calibre/calibre/web/feeds/feedparser.py Try again to fetch news .. above worked for me Yes, that seems to be the problem. feedparser.py is an empty file. Then again, I think calibre is trying to use the system-installed feedparser (which is installed for me). For whatever reason is not finding it (python path issues?). Sorry for the delay here... I was off traveling. ;( If folks seeing this could try: install the fedora calibre package rm -f /usr/lib*/calibre/calibre/web/feeds/feedparser.* then run it and see if you can duplicate the crash. I'm wondering if the 0 length file is causing it problems... Removing the feedparser packaged with calibre, as in comment #6, resolved this for me. calibre-0.9.4-1.fc18 has been submitted as an update for Fedora 18. https://admin.fedoraproject.org/updates/calibre-0.9.4-1.fc18 calibre-0.9.4-1.fc17 has been submitted as an update for Fedora 17. https://admin.fedoraproject.org/updates/calibre-0.9.4-1.fc17 Package calibre-0.9.4-1.fc18: * should fix your issue, * was pushed to the Fedora 18 testing repository, * should be available at your local mirror within two days. Update it with: # su -c 'yum update --enablerepo=updates-testing calibre-0.9.4-1.fc18' as soon as you are able to. Please go to the following url: https://admin.fedoraproject.org/updates/FEDORA-2012-17364/calibre-0.9.4-1.fc18 then log in and leave karma (feedback). I'm still having problems related, I think, to this issue. I have calibre-0.9.5-2.fc17 installed. When I try to fetch news my system does not crash. That's the good news. The bad news is that when I open the fetched news to read it, I only see (almost) empty pages saying something like "Failed feed: Nieuws No module named feedparser" I have python-feedparser-5.1.2-2.fc17 installed however, but calibre can't find it? (In reply to comment #11) > No module named feedparser" > > I have python-feedparser-5.1.2-2.fc17 installed however, but calibre can't > find it? As a temporary fix I did sudo cp /usr/lib/python27/site-packages/feedparser.py* /usr/lib/calibre/calibre/web/feeds/ and this works. So it indeed seems calibre is not finding feedparser Martin: If you 'rm -f /usr/lib/calibre/calibre/web/feeds/feedparser*' you get the 'no module' error? Are you sure you restarted calibre after upgrading? I don't think it will make much difference to do 'rm -f /usr/lib/calibre/calibre/web/feeds/feedparser*'. These files are already removed in calibre-0.9.5-2.fc15.rpm But yes, still "no module named named feedparser". ok, can you try this scratch build and see if it works correctly for you? http://koji.fedoraproject.org/koji/taskinfo?taskID=4701207 (In reply to comment #15) > ok, can you try this scratch build and see if it works correctly for you? > > http://koji.fedoraproject.org/koji/taskinfo?taskID=4701207 This one seems to be working fine. Feeds are fetched as expected. Thank you. Excellent. Thanks for your testing (and patience).
