Calibre 2.0.0 install broken on CentOS 6.5 Linux

[sprocketboy]

I assume this doesn't work because CentOS 6.5 Linux is kind of old. I can't update to CentOS 7.0 because they apparently no longer support 32-bit machines.

Error messages on install:

Setting up command-line completion...
Failed to find directory to install bash completions, using default.

Does anyone know where I can download the old 1.48.0-i686 binary tarball? I can't find it anywhere on the calibre download site (Just Windows, OSX, and the source tarball).

The calibre download for linux page has instructions on how to revert to earlier calibre releases. And yes, you need at least glibc 2.13 and the corresponding libstd++ for calibre 2.0. Even debian stable meets those dependency requirements.
