Description Mario 2017-07-10 13:29:01 EDT

Description of problem:
chm2pdf doesn't work at all. It crashes on a fresh install and it is probably due to a python library (version?) mismatch.

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):

Version      : 0.9.1
Release      : 19.fc26

Source       : chm2pdf-0.9.1-19.fc26.src.rpm

Summary      : A tool to convert CHM files to PDF files
URL          : http://code.google.com/p/chm2pdf/
License      : GPLv2+
Description  : A simple Python script that converts CHM files into PDF files.


How reproducible:
Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. dnf install chm2pdf

Actual results:

Traceback (most recent call last):

I can confirm this error on Fedora 27. A fresh install leads to the same error on import of chm.chm. It might be nice to either specify a workaround or have the package install the necessary dependencies.

I am not a python programmer, but will see if I can find out how to get the chm.chm required.
