A license denial left no trace: BookStatus stayed NotLiberated, so every
liberate run asked again. Only the GUI's bad-book dialog could mark a title
Error, and license denials take their own path and never reach that dialog, so
a headless install had no way at all to stop the retries. A cron schedule then
re-requested the same refused licenses every run and printed the same warning
block for each one, which is both wasted API traffic and the log noise reported
in issue #1947.
Record the refusal instead, with a wait that doubles per consecutive failure:
one day for an eligibility denial (up to 30), six hours for a title Audible has
no audio for yet such as an unreleased preorder (up to 7 days), one hour when
the denial names GenericError, which the GUI already reads as an outage
(up to 12). Nothing is permanent - every kind is attempted again on its own.
Only failures attributable to Audible are recorded. A dropped connection, a
decrypt error or a full disk keeps being retried on the next run as before.
Naming a title, --force, and setting a download status all clear the record:
asking for a title explicitly overrides the wait.
