I have installed the calibre 4.99.4+dfsg+really4.12.0-1ubuntu1 package version
from the proposed archive in Kubuntu 20.04. Calibre starts successfully.
However, please note that I previously had patched the
4.99.4+dfsg+really4.12.0-1build1 version as suggested in #9, so it was starting
anyway
Let's fix the immediate problem first, then someone can file a new bug
and do the proper procedure to try and get a newer version into focal
and groovy.

Thanks for releasing a fixed package.

devel/2020-October/041237.html is a suggestion to sync from Groovy to
Focal in order to fix the issue:

it works fine. As per bug report #1898904
Yes, Ubuntu Focal had Python 3.8.2 at release time, but there was a
security update to Python 3.8.5.

When this started to happen? I would be surprised if it was an update to
focal (why?), but I have the feeling this was working at the beginning.

I have uploaded a patched version of calibre to a ppa:

package in the official Ubuntu repository.

Per https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1840780#c2 this happens
on python >= 3.8.3. As Focal ships 3.8.5 we get this bug. Juanjo linked
and attached the upstream patch already, which is included in Calibre >=
4.15. Focal ships Calibre version 4.99.4 which I assume is some pre-
release
