On that note, if you'd like to try it again, here is an updated upgrade script, and this should download it and install it in the right location:
Code:
sudo wget -O /tmp/calibre.tar.gz https://www.mobileread.com/forums/attachment.php?attachmentid=120506&d=1395295772
Code:
sudo tar -xzf /tmp/calibre.tar.gz -C /usr/

sudo EDITOR="gedit" crontab -e
to edit crontab, and add the at the end:

0 6 * * 5 /usr/bin/calibre-upgrade.sh > /dev/null 2>&1
