Calibre 7.18 (solved)

[johnf76]

Hi!

(quick system info attached).

When trying to upgrade to the newest version of Calibre (7.18), I got the following message:

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

Your system has GNU libc version 2.31. The calibre binaries require at least version: 2.35 (released on 2022-02-03). Update your system."

Presuming you really don't want to upgrade libc to 2.35, any chance of updating the flatpack?

Thanks!

Open MX packageinstaller and go to the flatpak tab, search for the application in question.

If calibre latest no longer works on bullseye I'll need to remove it from mx-packageinstaller-popular apps. thanks for the report.

There are latest for bullseye available, - latest = the last "old" one that still run on bullseye.

for now I've removed it. we will need to adjust the calibre-helper stuff to pull anything else.

ok, i see what needs adjusted, just need to figure out which one is the last one that works. will work on it.

[dolphin_oracle]

last version of calibre that runs on bullseye is 7.16.

I have the pkglist files updated, but since I already sent an update today, will send it tomorrow.
