I'm installing the binary now. WHere does it store the tarball that it's downloading and how does it differ from the tarball from source install? I'm asking because I may need to install this on other machines that have no internet connection.

Just tried to upgrade and here is the result:

-> sudo python -c "import urllib2; exec urllib2.urlopen('http://status.calibre-ebook.com/linux_installer').read(); main()"
Enter the installation directory for calibre [/opt]:
Will download and install calibre-0.8.14-i686.tar.bz2

OSError: Cannot call rmtree on a symbolic link


Also, why does the installer download the app again after there was an error. The first download had completed so why doesn't it keep it on the system. I'm on a data that charges per byte and this is a waste of money having to redownload again.
