Installed from the website (the one-line console command), and have the same issue.
The exact same one; here's the text after running Calibre from the command line post-install:

qt.qpa.plugin: Could not load the Qt platform plugin "xcb" in "" even though it was found.
This application failed to start because no Qt platform plugin could be initialized. Reinstalling the application may fix this problem.

Available platform plugins are: eglfs, linuxfb, minimal, minimalegl, offscreen, vnc, wayland-egl, wayland, wayland-xcomposite-egl, wayland-xcomposite-glx, xcb.

Aborted (core dumped)
r@ubuntu:~$ apt-get install libxcb-xinerama0


What do I need to install? None of the ones listed there are in the default repositories (at least, the ones that shipped with apt in Lubuntu 18.04. I just reinstalled the system, so everything is fairly clean. Lubuntu 18 because 20 wouldn't install (at least on my machine, it wouldn't). Upgrades are wonderful, right? But platform plugin sounds like I need to install QT itself, which is no big deal (I usually have it on my machines, just not on this one yet).
