What edition of Mint Linux 18.1 are you using?
Cinnamon,
KDE,
Mate,
or Xfce?
How did you install Calibre? By running an install command from the Calibre installation page here? |
I am running Cinnamon, Calibre was installed using the Synaptic Package Manager.
It installed calibre, calibre-bin, and the versions reported are 2.55.0+dfsg-1. When I run it Calibre reports itself as 2.55
I am fairly new to Linux (less than a year as a user) and DiapDealer's reply above sent me off to study "..xdg desktop file associations..." a little as I know nothing about that. I found a helpful page here:
https://askubuntu.com/questions/1658...iations-stored
Ubuntu and Mint have a lot in common, I often find help with Mint in Ubunto related stuff. I looked in to the file associations using that link, in my /usr/share/applications folder I found the following files that might be associated with this:
calibre-gui.desktop
nemo-autorun-software.desktop
nemo-autostart.desktop
nemo.desktop
And I opened those with gedit to see if I could find anything but there was nothing that was obvious to me. The content of the calibre-gui.desktop file is as follows:
[Desktop Entry]
Type=Application
Name=calibre
GenericName=E-book library management
GenericName[de]=E-Book Bibliotheksverwaltung
Comment=E-book library management
Comment[es]=aplicación para la gestión de libros electrónicos
Comment[de]=E-Book Bibliotheksverwaltung
Exec=calibre %f
Icon=calibre-gui
Categories=Office;Database;FileTools;Viewer;Qt;
MimeType=x-content/ebook-reader;
If there is something in there that I can change I think I can do that...
