I've installed calibre 2.12 from KDE:Extra, getting following error when starting from konsole: user@zenbook:~> calibre QML debugging is enabled. Only use this in a safe environment. python2: siplib.c:8484: sip_api_can_convert_to_type: Assertion `(((td)-

Anyone knows how to fix it? -- Regards, Stas -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe@opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse+owner@opensuse.org

Go here http://calibre-ebook.com/download_linux Run the one-line command shown on that page. Works perfectly. -- _____________________________________ ---This space for rent--- -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe@opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse+owner@opensuse.org

Stab-in-the-dark, move ~/.config/calibre to ~/.config/calibre.org and try starting calibre again. Also, try: rpm -q --requires calibre and check that you have all dependencies satisfied I have the save version but from Tumbleweed repo and it works fine. -- (paka)Patrick Shanahan Plainfield, Indiana, USA @ptilopteri http://en.opensuse.org openSUSE Community Member facebook/ptilopteri http://wahoo.no-ip.org Photo Album: http://wahoo.no-ip.org/gallery2 Registered Linux User #207535 @ http://linuxcounter.net -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe@opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse+owner@opensuse.org

I have the save version but from Tumbleweed repo and it works fine.

No, moving configs and checking dependencies does not help. Surprisingly, I've just built it from source and it works! Downgraded RPM to 1.4x version, it works as well, upgraded back to 2.12 - it does not. Maybe will try to fork the RPM and check how it will behave... -- Regards, Stas -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe@opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse+owner@opensuse.org

Download directly from upstream, and use the build instructions on the site. I use version 2.4. -- Cheers / Saludos, Carlos E. R. (from 13.1 x86_64 "Bottle" at Telcontar)

Build from source? Its All Python for pete sake. Just download it with the URL I gave you and dispense with opensuse packages. The built in installer in the author's website works perfectly. -- After all is said and done, more is said than done. -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe@opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse+owner@opensuse.org

You'll be surprised to see how many C files are in the source, so yes, wrappers are written in python, but that hardly makes it "All Python". Official binary does not read KDE4 font settings from /etc/kde4, huge thanx to openSUSE maintainers for backporting an issue I've reported half a year ago. But the source "installer" that builds the app really works fine, and resulting build it works fine as well. No idea what's wrong with RPM from KDE:Extra, but if I was able to build it and it works - I most probably will be able to prepare RPM for myself as well. -- Regards, Stas -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe@opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse+owner@opensuse.org

New subject: [opensuse] Re: Calibre 2.12 is not working

Ok, found the fix. In OBS, forked the project, added KDE:Qt5 repository, rebuilt, it works. Probably because my system is using KDE:Qt5. Could anyone from KDE:Extra maintainers add KDE:Qt5 repository as well please? On Tuesday 02 December 2014 19:39:51 you wrote:
