Which, again, suggests that you have not installed calibre 5.3 or higher.
A quick walk through. You downloaded calibre-5.4.2.dmg. You opened it and dragged and dropped calibre.app on the Applications folder shortcut. When you got the "An older item named "calibre.app" already exists in this location. Do you want to replace it with the newer one you're moving?" popup, you clicked on Replace. After this you opened Terminal and entered the command line? The following text is what I see on my Mac VM:

If you delete the calibre.app currently existing in your Applications directory and re-add the calibre 5.4.2 calibre.app, does it still show as calibre 5.2? If you do a search on your hard drive for "calibre', does it come up with more than one instance of calibre.app?
