I just installed Calibre on a linux mint 18.3 x64 system that I am running while working to recover my main system. Unfortunately I am encounter problems with it. The install of Calibre went fine, but I hit problems trying to run:
Code:
dhdurgee@DG41TY ~/Downloads $ ebook-viewer The-Chase-Generic.epub
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)

Are the core dumps of any use? Where are they? How do I correct this?
