Yes, and no.
4.23.0 is in f33, but it is using python3, not python2.
Fedora moved calibre to python3 much sooner than upstream did because
python2 was being phased out in fedora. Unfortunately, we can't upgrade
to 5.x due to some dependencies in other packages not being ready yet.

With the python3 plugin it should work I would think...
I agree that the existing python2 plugins don't work. For example DeDRM 6.8.1 errors out with python 2 print statement instead of the python3 print() statement.
The DeDRM built for python3 fails to install on Calibre 4.23 with an error that the plugin requires a version of Calibrer >= 5.0.0.
I'll give Calibre 5.0.0 a try as suggested by Patrick O'Callaghan.
Thanks,
Clifford
