I just managed to upgrade my Raspberry OS from "buster" to "bullseye".

It took some time and effort because I'm no Linux crack, but eventually it's running fine. So it can be done. I just did it step by step with much searching/reading solutions on the net, which told me there are many other people doing this.

My trying the Manjaro distro where frustrating, the img files didn't even start on my Pi 3b+. Arch was just to much for me.

So now I have Raspbian OS 'Bullseye' and the version of calibre in it's repos is 5.12.
I'm mainly using the caliber-server and I'm very glad to'd manage this task.

Thanks and donations are going to Kovid. What a fine peace of software he's created!
