So in that sense I was glad to read that others were having problems too.

I've installed 0.6.13 from synaptic. Hopefully it'll get sorted in time
I sucessfully downloaded the bz2 package from sourceforge
I then sudo a nautilus session and unpackaged into /opt/calibre
done.
Note that my metadata.DB was already at the 6.44 level.


Note to Kovid: The sourceforge Calibre Linux download button says 6.14.
I almost bailed
