Kovid:

SUMMARY:
Ubuntu version 16.04 LTS fully updated
Calibre version 3.29
Problem is reproducable by the bug reporter.
Bug triager is unable to reproduce the bug.

Steps to reproduce:
1. Open Calibre
2. Download an EPUB ebook
3. Right click on the EPUB ebook
4. Select "Edit Meta-data"
5. Select "Edit Meta-data individually"
6. In the "Title" box, change the title of the book to all upper/lower case letters (by editing the title in the box) or, in the "Author(s)" box, change the author name to all upper/lower case letters.
7. Click "OK" in the lower right-hand corner of the screen

Expected behaviour: the book's title or author name is changed in the
book list.

Actual behaviour: The cover and the book disappear. The ".opf" file
remains, which Calibre cannot open (creates error).

Note: Books added with metadata already with lowercase and uppercase
letters open quite normally. It is only when editing the meta-data that
the book seems to get scrambled/lost. French language only (calibre
v3.30) - unable to replicate on an English computer (calibre v3.30).

Reporter has attached a sample ebook with results, above.
