calibre AttributeError: type object 'QUrl' has no attribute 'None'

Hi guys!

After the last updates I get this message when I try to open a book in calibre clicking the book format (both azw3 and epub). A book can be opened from the history though.

calibre 2.57.1  embedded-python: False is64bit: True
Linux-3.12.57-1-lts312-ck-x86_64-with-glibc2.2.5 Linux ('64bit', '')
('Linux', '3.12.57-1-lts312-ck', '#1 SMP PREEMPT Sun May 1 22:24:38 EEST 2016')
Python 2.7.11
Linux: ('', '', '')
Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "/usr/lib/calibre/calibre/gui2/book_details.py", line 481, in link_activated
    link = unicode(link.toString(QUrl.None))
AttributeError: type object 'QUrl' has no attribute 'None'

Any ideas how to make it work are appreciated!

Best reported upstream on the calibre bugtracker. 
The good news is it is already fixed in source: https://github.com/kovidgoyal/calibre/c … b6bd458bc6

...

I would open a bugreport on the Arch bugtracker to have calibre rebuilt with that patch, but it is Thursday so there should be a new calibre version released tonight anyway.

Why Monday in particular?

Anyway, it turns out there won't be a release this week, so I opened FS#49479.

I noticed before that once I get the notification for the new version in calibre itself it takes 3-4 days to receive the new version in the updates. Thank you for taking the trouble to open a report, Eschwartz!

Huh, I didn't think it usually took that long. But it is kind of disappointing that it hasn't been fixed.

Shameless plug I didn't notice the community package wasn't working... because I build calibre from source. See my calibre-git package in the AUR.

Installed calibre-installer and it works fine. Thank you, Eschwartz!
