Let me veer off topic with you for a moment. I've running a Plex server over 6 years and calibre for over 10 years. In that time I have never had either software auto-update. Plex informs me when an update is available and I choose whether to update the server. When I do choose to update the server more times than not the update fails and I have to go to the site, download the install and run the process manually. The same as I do for calibre.
Back on topic, if anyone wants calibre to auto-update there are apparent solutions for Windows, Linux and Mac users in the sticky posts of the
Related Tools forum.
I say apparent because I haven't tried them. I suspect none of them would work without me first pausing sync on Dropbox, since for my setup pausing sync in Dropbox is required prior to updating calibre. If I don't pause it the install will fail.
