Package: calibre
Version: 2.55.0+dfsg-1
Severity: important
Dear Maintainer,
After a update and upgrade in late April 2016, editing in Calibre stopped
working.
If I open Calibre, right-click and edit an ePub book stored there, and then try
to open an HTML file in the book, I get a pop-up error message.

calibre, version 2.55.0
ERROR: Unhandled exception: <b>AttributeError</b>:type object 'QUrl' has no

After I click OK for the error message popup, Calibre closes.
I have not done extensive testing, but it seems this mostly or only happens
with HTML files. Within Calibre, I have successfully opened and edited txt and
css files, and likewise jpgs are viewable. All HTML files that I've tried to
edit lead to this crash.
If it's a book I've edited in the past, where the HTML tab would ordinarily
open up in the editor because the editor remembers files viewed in the past,
Calibre crashes when I try to open the editor itself, before I click on any
specific files.
I would like to be able to edit books.
