As suggested by Kovid, it might be easier to install the newer version of calibre pointing the install to the external drive you are using for your current calibre setup. You will likely need to point to your calibre library when you run calibre after the install.

Sorry to have missed this tip earlier! I don't know why It didn't show up for me the other day. I'm going to assume the answer to your question is yes. AppImages were the only mobile form of linux apps that I was aware of, so when I could not find one on the official Calibre site, I went hunting for a third party one. How do I "point" the install to a particular drive? Do I need to alter part of the code I enter into the terminal in the instructions on the linux download page?
