Hi, interesting, I totally missed this thread. So jumping in a bit late. On Monday 19 April 2010 Stan Goodman wrote:
I would like to install this application on oS 11.1. There is a page that claims to enable this:

and speaks highly of Calibre, but clicking on the "Download" button discloses that it has been removed.
Yes, that was me. ;) I had to remove the one-click installation from my repository as I had moved to a different location. Now I try to improve the RPM package, but it takes time. So this is currently work in progress.
The web is filled with articles about problems encountered in installing Calibre, which is unfortunate, because the salesman-talk about it is really top notch.
The content of the above link still applies. The problem with Calibre is, it takes a lot of dependencies and if you catch a different version by accident it might not work. Although I tried to cover most of it in the RPM ("version X must greater than 1.1.3") it is no guarantee.
Has anyone actually installed (from either binaries or source) it and got it to work?
Yes, me. :) Tom -- Thomas Schraitle ---------------------------------------------------------------------- SUSE LINUX GmbH >o) Documentation Specialist Maxfeldstrasse 5 /\\ 90409 Nuernberg _\_v http://en.opensuse.org/Documentation_Team http://lizards.opensuse.org/author/thomas-schraitle/ --------------------------------------------------------------------- -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe@opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse+help@opensuse.org
