Bug Description

Calibre 0.8.33
Fedora 16 x86_64

If remember_current_page is True, the original file is modified.

This the md5sum on my book tree.

(A bit unexpected that a read-only access is not read-only.)

If this is being caused by the position being stored in the original file, wouldn't this cause a problem on a multi-user system? Shouldn't the location be stored on a per-user basis?

It is by design, it allows for example easy sharing of bookmarks.
