[Bug 1901921] Re: Sync calibre 5.3.0+dfsg-1 (universe) from Debian unstable (main)

[Carlos Pita]

Sorry for the noise, but now I'm reading
https://lists.ubuntu.com/archives/ubuntu-devel/2020-October/041237.html
and there was a suggestion there to sync but from Groovy:

> I checked Calibre in Groovy (version 4.99.12+dfsg+really4.23.0-1) and
it works fine. As per bug report #1898904
(https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/calibre/+bug/1898904/comments/7),
Calibre >=4.15 has the required patch. So, instead of waiting for 5.2,
can we backport current Groovy version of Calibre to Focal?

So I'm reopening this and letting you close it or follow this suggestion
instead.

Title:
  Sync calibre 5.3.0+dfsg-1 (universe) from Debian unstable (main)

Status in calibre package in Ubuntu:
  New

Bug description:
  Please sync calibre 5.3.0+dfsg-1 (universe) from Debian unstable
  (main)

  Ubuntu 20.04 LTS has shipped a beta version of calibre that is unable
  to even start.

  Upstream report: https://bugs.launchpad.net/calibre/+bug/1877180

  Downstream report:
  https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/calibre/+bug/1898904

  There has been a fix for five months now.

  Please, either sync to a working version or apply a patch with the fix
  described in https://bugs.launchpad.net/calibre/+bug/1877180/comments/6
  (although I think the right thing to do is to sync, because this is just
  a patch for beta in an LTS).

  This is a sync request for focal and maybe also groovy (see comments
  below).
