/usr/lib/calibre/ebooks/pdf/writer.py Line#206 outPDF = PdfFileWriter(title=self.metadata.title, author=self.metadata.author) Uses a constructor that doesn't appear to exist: http://pybrary.net/pyPdf/pythondoc-pyPdf.pdf.html#pyPdf.pdf.PdfFileWriter-class Changing the line to anonymous (and only) constructor in pypdf outPDF = PdfFileWriter() Resolves the bomb for me. (but I still have weird start of line chars in the result) -- ebook-convert from html to pdf crashes https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/428933 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
