Same here. My solution (which works fine on my Oasis) is:

- Install kterm (search on Mobilereads for this),
- Make sure you've installed Python.
- Run kterm (from KUAL)
- On the kterm command line, cd to the directory /mnt/us/extensions/librariansync
- Run the following command:
python generate_collections.py --update-calibre
(or "python generate_collections.py --rebuild-calibre" if you want
to rebuild instead of update).

The program will complain about not having the correct screen area to write to (as we're not running the program from KUAL), but the cc.db database will still be updated correctly and you'll see your collections once you exit kterm (by typing "exit").

I guess there's an issue in running python from KUAL in the most recent OS versions.
