Hi Lantolin, Kovidgoyal

How did you change the path so that calibre can download book images ok?

I have the same problem with Calibre 0.8.4 in that every book download results in an error. Even though the image the URL points to exists and is correct.

* the command I'm using to launch calibre is:
LD_LIBRARY_PATH=/opt/calibre/lib /opt/calibre//bin/calibre

* my system is Ubuntu 10.04.2 LTS (Lucid)

* I didn't change anything related to libjpeg that I know of

An example from the debug log reads:

Starting cover download for: The Robber Bride
Query: The Robber Bride [u'Margaret Atwood'] {u'isbn': u'9780770428211'}
Invalid cover from Amazon.com
