Starting a few versions ago, sorry I can't be more specific, when installing Calibre on Ubuntu 9.04, I started to get another message than the seg fault mentioned in the install instructions.

I'll copy/paste:

...
Enter the installation directory for calibre (Its contents will be deleted!)[/opt/calibre]: /home/abennett/calibre
Downloading calibre...
100% [================================================== ====================]
Extracting files to /home/abennett/calibre ...

Creating symlinks...
Traceback (most recent call last):
File "/tmp/init.py", line 45, in <module>
File "/home/kovid/work/calibre/src/calibre/linux.py", line 349, in binary_install
OSError: [Errno 17] File exists
abennett@E6400:~/tempc$

Calibre launches fine, though.

Oh, can a Calibre icon for gnome be located somewhere?
