Same for me! (I’m running calibre on Ubuntu)

Hey guys, sorry for the late reply. I'll try to reproduce and fix the error in a few weeks when I have a bit more time.

[hex007]

I have the solution. The '../..' is not resolving properly on *nix systems. Wrapping it with "os.path.abspath(path_with_..)" works

I will submit a PR for it

[pavelzw]

Alright, thanks!

[acbakhit]

@hex007 I'm still experiencing this issue, was a solution ever pushed? Any advice on how I can resolve this?

I'm also getting this error way up here in 2024.
