Use one of the versions before 0.6.29 from here http://sourceforge.net/projects/calibre/files/

just untar the tarball and run it. Hopefully it will work, but, IIRC you might have to do some monkeying around with udev to give your user account the correct permissions on the sony device nodes. Or run calibre as root.
