Package: calibre
Version: 2.5.0+dfsg-1
Severity: normal
Dear Maintainer,
I was trying to use my e-reader's (FBReader on Android) opds facility to
retreive the list of books
available from calibre so I could download a new one. It reported a 500 error
each time I tried.
I was expecting it to present me with a list of headings that would allow me to
locate an e-book for download.
This is a procedure that worked fine when the server was wheezy rather than
jessie. I checked the server
logs and found the following:

A bit of googling around led me to this bug report:
https://bugs.launchpad.net/calibre/+bug/1445685
So I removed the password and it did indeed work after this. However making
one's e-book collection
available to the world is the sort of thing that can get one in legal trouble
and if I'm going to
get involved in copyfight civil disobedience I'd like that to be an active
choice.
