I have the same problem: Most icons in the Calibre UI have become huge.
See the following screenshot for more details:

Toolbar icon size is set to "medium". Note also the oversized UI elements in the tag browser and at the bottom.
Calibre version is 2.68, running on Arch Linux x86_64 (Gnome). I also tried the latest git revision. No other program shows these issues. DPI and accessibility settings are all normal.

Any help is appreciated!

EDIT:
This is apparently the same issue as Grollicus had with the ebook viewer:

His solution worked for me as well.

As the comments in __init__.py already suggest, it would probably be best to create an option in the preferences to control the DPI scaling.

Keep up the good work, Kovid!
