You can uninstall calibre by running sudo calibre-uninstall



Have no idea what this means. New to linux rather Python + Linux. Please help me. I need to install Calibre on my laptop and upload a bunch of books before i leave on this long trip......

I have a desktop with Calibre installed Archlinux 64 bit. It works like a charm. My laptop is having issues. Do you think i should post more about the error. You are always the best help. Archforums i am not sure....

import _urllib2
File "/usr/lib/python2.5/site-packages/mechanize/_urllib2.py", line 3, in <module>
from urllib2 import \
ImportError: cannot import name GopherError


This is a little more info about the error. It is in the menu, installed except that i cannot run...
