On trying to install:

Code:

hairybiker@duo:~$ get_calibre

It seems to install but opening it gives errors again

Code:

hairybiker@duo:~$ calibre

But it IS installed

Code:

hairybiker@duo:~$ sudo apt-get install python-qt4
Reading package lists... Done

python-qt4 is already the newest version.

So is it a version conflict ?

Its installed, the error comes from some plugin you have that has not been ported to Qt 5. Simply ignore it and run calibre as usual.

I get the same error when I try to update data calling from an external program to calibredb.exe. (Windows 7 - Calibre 2.4)

Examples:

calibredb.exe set_custom --library-path "F:\Biblioteca\CalibreLibrary" "year" 89133 2014

calibredb.exe set_metadata --library-path "F:\Biblioteca\CalibreLibrary" 89133 "F:\Biblioteca\Calibre2\NewMetadata.opf"

Calibredb gives me the error:
"Failed to unpickle stored object:
Python function terminated unexpectedly
[Errno 9] Bad file descriptor (Error Code: 1)"

If I execute these commands through the cmd the error log has more info, saying:
"Traceback (most recent call last):
File "site-packages\calibre\utils\config.py" line 215, in refresh
ImportError: No module named PyQt4.QtCore [...]"

Thanks in advance,
Odinokij
