Exclamation [Old Thread] Problem installing on Ubuntu Linux

Hello,

I'm running Crunchbang Linux on my Asus EeePC, and am attempting to get Calibre installed and running. When I use the command line python script,
Code:
sudo python -c "import urllib2; exec urllib2.urlopen('http://status.calibre-ebook.com/linux_installer').read(); main()"
I get the following:

Code:
Enter the installation directory for calibre [/opt]: 
Will download and install calibre-0.7.33-i686.tar.bz2
                    Downloading calibre-0.7.33-i686.tar.bz2                     
100% [======================================================================]
                                                                                Downloaded 42569064 bytes
Checking downloaded file integrity...
Extracting files to /opt/calibre ...
Extracting application files...
Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "site.py", line 48, in main
  File "site.py", line 37, in set_qt_plugin_path
ImportError: cannot import name QCoreApplication

Run "calibre" to start calibre
brad@bgc-eee:/opt$
Any idea what I can do to fix this? I cannot find where site.py is located in the install tree

I really want to get going with using Calibre - it'd be great for managing school documents as well as ebooks.

Thank you,

Brad Camroux
