Package: calibre
Version: 2.24.0+dfsg-1
Severity: important
Dear Maintainer,
After upgrading to Debian/stretch I found that Calibre was unable to open pdf
books, with errors such as
Unable to find the requested file. Please check the spelling and try again.
Unhandled error message: Error when getting information for file '...': No
such file or directory
(when my prefered file manager is Nautilus) and a nautilus window is opened.
Later I found the same message when trying to open a Path.
Changing my prefered file manager to thunar through exo-preferred-
applications the message changes to
Failed to open "..."
Error when getting information for file '..': No such file or directory.
I noticed that the message seems to come from the file manager, not from
Calibre.
I also noticed that the file name passed to the file manager has spaces
replaced by '%20'.
The files do exist and I can open them from both file managers by clicking on
them. Furthermore, I can open the same book in other formats from the same
directory using Calibre. I could also open the pdf's after installing the 'Open
With' plugin and configuring it for opening pdf files. So I guess the problem
is related to the protocol used to communicate with the file managers.
Best regards,
Luis

Better yet with buster, since that's the release we're preparing for!
Thank you for confirming everything works as expected now; I'm happy
to hear that's the case :-)
I'll close the bug now. Please don't hesitate to file a new one if
ever you encounter any regressions.
Regards,
Nicholas
P.S. Congrats getting Adobe Digital Editions working in wine!
