Anyone get Calibre running on CentOS 5.5? I am having problems getting the binary installer to work. I have installed version 2.6 of python as python26. Here is the installer output:
Code:
python26 -c "import urllib2; exec urllib2.urlopen('http://status.calibre-ebook.com/linux_installer').read(); main()"
Enter the installation directory for calibre [/opt]: /usr/local
Will download and install calibre-0.7.6-i686.tar.bz2

Run "calibre" to start calibre
I let the installer dump core and loaded the result into gdb. gdb claims the core file came from /usr/local/calibre/loader. Here is the backtrace:

I saw a post from about a year ago that someone got calibre working under CentOS 5.3, and hoping I can get it to work under CentOS 5.5 without too much pain.
Thanks in advance for any help,
Bill.
