Bug Description

Since I upgraded to OS Maverick, calibre often crashes adding duplicate titles (though not always, usually not when only adding duplicate titles). This has happened under many versions of calibre (currently using 1.26). Calibre has never crashed like this under the previous Mac OS.

Hmm, unfortunately, I dont see anything suggestive in that crash report and I cant get calibre to crash on my OS X machine while adding duplicates, so I am at a loss to explain this, sorry.

ONe thing I can suggest is that if you have any third party plugins
installed in calibre, unistall them via Preferences->Plugins and see if
the crashes stop.

I'll remove my plugins and test for a while. Thank you. Hopefully that
fixes it.

I have made one small change, that *might* help. It's hard for me to know if it will actually help since I cannot reproduce this crash.

In any case, try the next release (1.28) and see if it makes a difference.

Nice, ok will try it.

Something tells me that the crashes I’v seen, e.g. the ”library full” thing from last week might be connected to the queueing of meta data backup thing.
But I’m not sure.

So far so good with 1.28. But since it didn't crash all the time, I'll give
it a few more tries to be sure.

1.28 just crashed when starting to add duplicates :(
I had added almost 1500 items in small batches before this over a few hours.
Some of them was also ”duplicates”.

Why is the ”add duplicates” window not a modal window like the "add new file window”?
