I have always installed and updated Calibre following the instructions of Calibre, as given in their website: enter this command:
sudo -v && wget -nv -O-

Up to last week this worked instantly. Today, upon opening Calibre it said there is a new version, so I opened my terminal and entered above cmd. But this time, it returned an error:
Using python executable: /usr/bin/python3

You are missing the system library libxcb-cursor.so.0. Try installing packages such as libxcb-cursor0 or xcb-cursor
I have tried on three different computers, one with a fresh install of the latest Linux Mint (21.2), my regular one with the same install, and one with Linux mint 21.1. All gave the same error.
Has anyone experienced this? I tried to Google for a solution but found none.
