It would be helpful to know what the difference is as I haven't a clue; it's not helpful for non-techie users of Linux.

It really can't be easier.
On
Calibre's Linux install/download page it states up front:
Please do not use your distribution provided calibre package, as those are often buggy/outdated. Instead use the Binary install described below.
