Indeterminate Calibre state

[abdoei]

I tried to use the bash file to patch the installation of Calibre and it can't work probably because the command findlink is not found and I can't find a command with that name.

I tried executing the commands one by one and messed up the last command with $(PWD) instead of $(pwd). A type of installer came out and when I tried cancelling it, it just continued with a punch of error pop-ups. Then a persistent state of Calibre that seems to be not batched appears every time I execute the last command correctly.

I use Manjaro with the latest kernel version and updates. How can I mitigate this situation?

I think I came up with a hacky way to force it by overwriting the ascii_filename implementation in /usr/lib/calibre/calibre/utils/filenames.py with your implementation without renaming it. I don't use the HTTP client so I didn't make it to ask for UTF-8 encoding.

You may close this issue if you don't see any issues to solve other than mine.
