Is there any reason why you're going with the build via the installer script instead of the packages made for your distro? openSUSE has pretty up to date packages of Calibre, with 8.4.0 being the current one (which is the latest release anyway)
Never ever install calibre from any repository. They usually fail. Install from the calibre site.
