Calibre bug in Fedora 16

Some days ago I upgraded to Fedora 16 which comes with Calibre 0.8.11.
I noticed that its reader does not correctly apply the text justification on both sides (only left or right justification work). Also field "Comments" in the Metadata editor has the same problem.
Upgrading to the latest version from repo http://repos.fedorapeople.org/repos/kevin/calibre/
does not help. This probably means that the problem is due to a bug in some external library loaded by Calibre.

Any suggestion?

Thanks in advance

Use the official binary install at http://calibre-ebook.com . Fedora's package is unsupported here and Linux distro packages are typically broken.

I've already switched to the official binary and it works as expected. My intention was to help the Fedora community to solve the problem.

thanks

yes! I moved the link /usr/lib/libQtWebKit.so.4 to /usr/lib/libQtWebKit.so.4 -> /opt/calibre/lib/libQtWebKit.so.4 and now the text alignment is correct.

Thanx for the support.
