That may well be. I am just trying to view the help file.

Here is what happens when I run calibre from the terminal:

jeff@jeff-eeepc:~$ calibre &
[1] 22321
jeff@jeff-eeepc:~$ link hasn't been detected! <- this is when calibre starts
link hasn't been detected!
Error: no "view" mailcap rules found for type "application/rtf" <- This is when I try to view the rtf file.

Any other suggestions, Kovid?
