Running openSUSE 12.3 with KDE 4.10.5
I've just installed 'Calibre' using YaST/Software management. When I try to run it, it fails with the following run time error:
20:02 bob@barrowhillfarm:~> calibre Traceback (most recent call last): File "/usr/bin/calibre", line 20, in <module> sys.exit(main()) File "/usr/lib64/calibre/calibre/gui2/main.py", line 417, in main app, opts, args, actions = init_qt(args) File "/usr/lib64/calibre/calibre/gui2/main.py", line 84, in init_qt from calibre.gui2.ui import Main File "/usr/lib64/calibre/calibre/gui2/ui.py", line 31, in <module> from calibre.gui2.widgets import ProgressIndicator File "/usr/lib64/calibre/calibre/gui2/widgets.py", line 21, in <module> from calibre.gui2.progress_indicator import ProgressIndicator as _ProgressIndicator File "/usr/lib64/calibre/calibre/gui2/progress_indicator/__init__.py", line 15, in <module> pi_error) RuntimeError: Failed to load the Progress Indicator plugin: the sip module implements API v9.0 to v9.2 but the progress_indicator module requires API v10.0
I'm not sure how to proceed...

I install it from the Calibre website and it works perfectly every time. (Here is where someone is bound to jump in and complain about that, right Carlos?) I have a script in /root/bin for do the update, which is nothing but a one line python command from this web page: http://calibre-ebook.com/download_linux python -c "import sys; py3 = sys.version_info[0] > 2; u = __import__('urllib.request' if py3 else 'urllib', fromlist=1); exec(u.urlopen('http://status.calibre-ebook.com/linux_installer').read()); main()" (above is one long line, even tho it wrapped here). I do this because the packagers at OpenSuse are at least a couple releases behind. I use calibre extensively and have hunted around and found the plug-ins that automatically rip out the DRM in all the ebooks I purchase. These then work perfectly on any device I own. Note: I've had two ebook providers die/go out of business on me, and once I buy a book (and I always buy them, authors need money too), they all go through this process. -- _____________________________________ ---This space for rent--- -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe@opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse+owner@opensuse.org
