  After deleting those books where the name of the author begins with letters as "Sz; Cs;Ty;Ny;etc." could make the cataloge.
  What kind of changes I have to do, and where?

Open the folder containing your calibre library, then find the file 'metadata.db'. Click the button below labeled 'Add attachment or patch, then upload your metadata.db file as an attachment to this ticket.

When you are adding a comment to this ticket, do not reply to the email you receive. Go to the link in the email so that you are viewing the webpage for the ticket, add your comment there.

I need the 'metadata.db' file from your calibre library, not 'metadata.opf'.

This catalog was made by the version 8.64. Since that time I was not able to make a new catalog, thats why I have to split the books in two "catalogs".

This file was made with version 9.13, without the "wrong" files...

I was able to build a catalog with Titles and Authors with the metadata.db you attached without any problems. I need to see a metadata.db that exhibits the problem. Does the metadata.db file that you attached fail on your system?

I send you another one metadata.db.
This is from today.
I tried to make a catalog with Calibre v 0.9.13 and I received the problem once again

I need to see the debug log when it fails. After the failure, copy all of the details and paste them into a new comment here.

Are you using Windows or OS X?

Windows 7
For your information: with the version 0.8.64 I could make the right catalog, but since that is not possible.
I have made no changes, only update for the new version!

In the most recent metadata.db file that you added with 55 books, which author(s) cause the problem?

With every!
In Hungarian there are some letters as "doubble", as "sz", "cs", "ty", "ny", "zs", "gy", "ly".
I made this "catalog" extrem for those authors where the name beginns with the letter mentioned above.
That's why every books are "wrong", cause the problem
Because of that "problem" I have two separate catalogs, one for normal books, where I can make the catalog, and separate the "wrong" books, with authors name beginning with "doubble letters".
I add once more the latest metadata.db with "wrong" books, alltogether 71 books

@GRiker: are you using the ICU tools to find equivalent first letters? If so then you need to be prepared for ICU to give you more than one "real" letter that stands for a "virtual" single letter. The reason: some languages use multiple letters to stand for a "virtual" single letter that appears in a different place in the collation. For example, in Hungarian "sz" is a separate letter between "s" and "t" The sequence "D", "Dz", "Dzs", "E" shows both a double letter and a triple letter group where "Dzt" will appear before "Dzs". For more detail on Hungarian, see http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hungarian_alphabet

Thanks to Charles I now have a fix for Hungarian catalogs. The patch should be available in the next release of calibre.

Fixed in branch lp:calibre. The fix will be in the next release. calibre is usually released every Friday.
