There's no need for this.

Manual binary install

If you wish to revert to an earlier calibre release or download a calibre upgrade manually, download the tarball of that release from here (choose the 32-bit or 64-bit version, as appropriate). Assuming you want calibre in /opt/calibre, run the following command, changing the path to calibre-tarball.txz below as appropriate:
From there, you may use the file resources/calibre-portable.sh as a Linux portable launcher. There is also resources/calibre-portable.bat from before the .exe launcher was developed.

Note: both resources/ scripts and the .exe do the same thing -- all three just set the environment variables from https://manual.calibre-ebook.com/cus...ment-variables before running calibre.
