I was counting WINE as part of the install, since this takes place on linux. K4PC alone would probably only take a couple minutes.
Keep in mind, that WINE requires configuring each WINEPREFIX in various ways. And WINE is also yet another download, depending if you count that.
Have you ever used linux and/or WINE? I guess not. This is fairly common knowledge, but only to those who have ever had to install something in WINE. It is somewhat of a pain in the neck to have to work with, but that's what we have to work with...
Also, you need python and pycrypto running in WINE as well, the linux bundle in calibre doesn't cut it. Or you could try running calibre in WINE...

No, the plugin should happen automatically, assuming you use the default WINEPREFIX.
