64 bits system. This is the output:

Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "/usr/bin/calibre", line 20, in <module>
    sys.exit(calibre())
  File "/usr/lib/calibre/calibre/gui_launch.py", line 45, in calibre
    init_dbus()
  File "/usr/lib/calibre/calibre/gui_launch.py", line 39, in init_dbus
    from dbus.mainloop.glib import DBusGMainLoop, threads_init
ImportError: No module named dbus.mainloop.glib

I too have this problem. My Arch 64 system (xfce) is fully-patched/working great but I get the same error messages as sosonok... Anyone else? Fingers crossed for a quick fix!

Install python2-dbus

It worked. Thanks.

Shouldn't be python2-dbus among Calibre dependencies?

It should, and there is already a bug report filed about it.

Many thanks - worked a treat!

Sorry, but I'm in this trouble and I installed python2-dbus without difference!

Need I another library? Thanks!

$ pacman -Ss dbus | grep python
extra/python-dbus 1.2.4-2 [installed]
extra/python-dbus-common 1.2.4-2 [installed]
extra/python2-dbus 1.2.4-2 [installed]
