That's only going to work for the current terminal you have open. You can't run the export command and then click on a calibre shortcut. You'd have to launch calibre from that same terminal by typing: "calibre" and hitting enter (no quotes).

Try just setting it and running calibre at the same time from a termnal:
CALIBRE_TEMP_DIR=/new/path calibre

If it works, you can just create a bash script to launch calibre. Or if you want something more permanent, add 'export CALIBRE_TEMP_DIR=/new/path' to the .profile file in your home directory. Then you can launch calibre however you want (after you log back in).
