I'm only testing Calibre 4.0 on a my test Linux PC and keeping current 3.xx on my Linux laptop. There are too many issues and the Reader GUI changes seem suited for a phone, not a desktop.
I'm sure you'll get it sorted, but it seems a premature release and the Reader changes only considering one user demographic. I only actually read on eink, managing the library for all my eink and family's eink reader is the whole point of Calibre. Been using it since XP was my main OS.
I use the Reader to quickly check TOC links are correct, First Paragraphs match body paragraphs and all headings and links are correct, from the import /conversion. I check a dual mobi converted from epub2 converted from a docx import, then upload the epub2 to Amazon and Smashwords (without opening it as that creates a bookmark). I also upload the dual mobi to Smashwords.
The AZW and epub are used for the ereaders here, inc wider family and beta readers. I also buy books from Amazon and Smashwords as well as importing from Gutenberg and other public domain sources.
Managing about 1500+ ebook and 500 technical PDFs (used on a tablet) as well as about 40 documents/books imported from LibreOffice Writer via docx.
