Any help would be great, thanks.
That issue would be with the official installer. This script will automate the job of downloading and running linux-installer.py (with the appropriate options and stuck in a cron job et cetera) from the calibre GitHub repository, and that script uses tar to unpack the calibre binaries.

Slitaz may not be the best choice of general-use distro on a computer that can support a more powerful OS. It is mainly geared toward very low-resource PCs and having a stripped down system, which doesn't seem to be very compatible with running a high-powered program like calibre.
