A while ago, I accidentally typed "rm -rf *" in the wrong directory, and lost a bunch of my calibre library. My attempts to rebuild it failed. I *stupidly forgot about local timemachine snapshots*. They're in my dropbox folder, so I thought, no problem, right? ha ha ha ha
I've been unable to get it back fully. I have hundreds of books with missing epub files. I had over 500 that were missing epub but had azw, so I was able to reconvert those.
