Please do not use your distribution provided calibre package, as those are often buggy/outdated. Instead use the Binary install described below.

Following above tip I installed calibre from official website on my Arch Linux Setup. Now, I have to manually update calibre everytime a new update pops up. I have been keeping an eye on Arch Linux "distribution provided calibre package" version and this version is also available on Arch repositories really fast.
So, I think installing from Arch Repository won't be a bad idea either? or should I stick to the official version?
I would be satisfied if there is a way to update official package along with system update with
.
I tried using alias for
Code:
update = "sudo pacman -Syu && sudo -v && wget -nv -O- https://download.calibre-ebook.com/linux-installer.sh | sudo sh /dev/stdin"
but with this method, even if calibre is up to date, it still installs calibre and overwrite. Preferred output should have been that it checks latest version and installed version and skip installation if both versions match.
