another thought - opening a book in that 64 bit install. does calibre viewer show cover image as 1st page of book OK or is it missing there also?
Thanks for the suggestions, cybmole, but it doesn't work that way in Linux. I don't really "install" Calibre, I just unpack it into its own directory. (Under /opt for what it's worth.) So there's no chance of shared libraries from the archive remaining hanged somewhere else in the system.

And the reader never did show the cover image as the first page of a book unless it was present as such in the document, as opposed to just some image included in the ePub file and marked with cover semantics. But now it does exhibit some weird behavior: not showing images in ePub files anymore (just "broken image" placeholders), while still showing them in eReader PDB files. And yes, the images are preserved during conversion... Really, really curious.
