reinstall older version?
Version 2.0 doesn't seem to work on my Linux (Centos 6, up to date) so I tried to download 1.48 to reinstall, but the 1.x downloads do not appear to include a Linux version, only windows, "portable" (which still looks like a windows executable), and MAC OS.

How do I get a Linux installer for 1.48.0 ?

thanks!

Instructions for downloading older versions are on the calibre linux download page.

Kovid:

thanks for the reply.

I've already been to the linux download page, followed the link to the downloadable files, select 1.48, and do not see any Linux downloads either there, or for any 1.x version. That seems odd, since the link to the 2.0 version shows them. What am I overlooking?

here's what I see on that page:
calibre release (1.48.0)

Windows
Windows 32-bit Installer
Windows 64-bit Installer

Calibre Portable
Calibre Portable Installer

Apple Mac
OS X Disk Image (.dmg)

Source Code
Source code (all platforms)

is what shows there, at http://download.calibre-ebook.com/1.48.0/. Is the "Calibre Portable" the one I want? it looks like a windows program, so I assume not.

Ah that was caused by the move from bz2 to xz for compression of the linux downloads. I have restored the links, you should be fine now.

It looks as if the last listed download for old versions for Linux is 1.46.

However http://download.calibre-ebook.com/1....x86_64.tar.bz2 [64 bit] and http://download.calibre-ebook.com/1....0-i686.tar.bz2 [32 bit] do seem to work.
