I am excited about this! I of course use the GUI on some computers so all these new features are great.

Unfortunatley I also run a headless calibre-server on a headless Ubuntu 13.04 server. This has been working fine, although months ago I recall one release had a similar problem to what I'm experiencing now.

I am in fact installing Calibre from scratch as I was redoing my server, and on trying to run calibre-server, I get:

Code:

Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "site.py", line 56, in main
  File "site-packages/calibre/library/server/main.py", line 12, in <module>
  File "site-packages/calibre/library/server/base.py", line 21, in <module>
  File "site-packages/calibre/library/server/content.py", line 17, in <module>
  File "site-packages/calibre/utils/magick/__init__.py", line 15, in <module>
RuntimeError: Failed to load ImageMagick: libfontconfig.so.1: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory

OK, so I didn't used to have this error on a fresh headless Ubuntu server install, but I go ahead and install fontconfig, but then I get:

Code:

Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "site.py", line 56, in main
  File "site-packages/calibre/library/server/main.py", line 12, in <module>
  File "site-packages/calibre/library/server/base.py", line 21, in <module>
  File "site-packages/calibre/library/server/content.py", line 17, in <module>
  File "site-packages/calibre/utils/magick/__init__.py", line 15, in <module>
RuntimeError: Failed to load ImageMagick: libXt.so.6: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory

So I google around and install libxtst6, which also installs x11-common (now I'm starting to get frustrated about too much software I don't need on this server, but ok) but it does nothing. Same error.

Bug to fix? Should I head over to launchpad to report? Or am I doing something wrong?
