user_none: I maintained binary installs prior to year 2000, but became annoyed by upgrading one package introduced many unsatisfied deps. This particular scenario is common when running SVN/CVS, or just the latest and greatest version.

As such, I switched to Gentoo (a source based distro) and have been happy & peaceful ever since.

I've looked into xvfb (networking framebuffer), but not what I really need as it just networks stuff requiring me to use twice the computer resources I even need.

:Manichean - I don't have "epub-convert" here with my install of calibre-0.8.14. This command grabs a News RSS feed? Sounds more like an epub converter.
