Have you tried:
Code:
sudo apt install libxcb-cursor0

It is held by process 24293 (apt) again and again and again.

I am an absolute n00b with Linux as this is my first experience with it and I would really love to get Calibre to work as I switched to Linux on my old Macbook purely to support the new Kobo Claras that my kids have as I couldn't add books to them with my older Calibre version on MacOS Monteray.

Thanks for any advice.
