Okay, I'm posting this in public, but I'm also going to send a private message to Kovid - I've been unable to get a complete build of all the things calibre needs to work in Snow Leopard and I'm unable to dedicate more time to the effort due to a combination of my day job and night school.

Sorry for getting people's hopes up; the best solution I've been able to find is to run a Linux distro inside Vmware or Windows via Bootcamp. I'll keep poking at it, but I can't justify spending more than an hour or two a week on it.

BTW - the problem is not Calibre itself, the problem is that Calibre depends on many different packages that are native to Linux. Ports for these packages exist for Mac OS-X, but the change from 10.5 to 10.6 seems to have caused a cascade of problems that have yet to be resolved.
