Sorry if this is obvious (I have tried goggling and not found the answer

I have been trying to use calibre command line to fetch news, following the FAQ where is suggests "/opt/calibre/ebook-convert "Title of news source.recipe" outputfile.epub".

This works fine on my desktop machine (running linux mint 17.2) but fails on my server running ubuntu 14.04.

The error messages I get are:

1% Generating masthead...
Synthesizing mastheadImage
Failed to generate default masthead image

and

Creating MOBI Output...
67% Running MOBI Output plugin
Serializing resources...
Traceback (most recent call last):
File "site.py", line 63, in main

ImportError: cannot import name QImage

In the FAQ it says that this is probably due to "some missing X libraries".

If you could suggest what I should install I would be really grateful.
