4.23

Please help. I normally use the binary code, cut a paste in terminal to upgrade calibre. But that will give me 5.42 and I want to go from 4.22 to 4.23.

Found the download file for 4.23 for Ubuntu , have downloaded it but now have no clue what to do with it. Please help how do I install it.

From the calibre download for linux page:

Quote:

Reverting to a previous version

You can install a previous calibre release, like this:

Code:
sudo -v && sudo calibre-uninstall && wget -nv -O- https://download.calibre-ebook.com/linux-installer.sh | sudo sh /dev/stdin version=3.48.0
Change 3.48.0 above to whatever version you want installed.
So you would enter:
Code:
sudo -v && sudo calibre-uninstall && wget -nv -O- https://download.calibre-ebook.com/linux-installer.sh | sudo sh /dev/stdin version=4.23.0.
into a terminal.

You might want to go back to the calibre download page for Linux and scroll down a bit to the Reverting to a previous version.

For example:

sudo -v && sudo calibre-uninstall && wget -nv -O- https://download.calibre-ebook.com/linux-installer.sh | sudo sh /dev/stdin version=3.48.0

Uninstall is not a disaster. your Library and settings remain, just waiting for another install (which finds the settings exist)

That code doesn't work as I have already uninstalled calibre.

Went for broke and edited your code with the code to install the new version and came up with..
sudo -v && wget -nv -O- https://download.calibre-ebook.com/linux-installer.sh | sudo sh /dev/stdin version=4.23.0

Got 4.23.0 thanks.
