[SOLVED] Calibre won't launch a new install

I performed a fresh install of Arch on my laptop and installed calibre and when I attempt to launch it I get this:

Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "/usr/bin/calibre", line 19, in <module>
    sys.exit(main())
  File "/usr/lib/calibre/calibre/gui2/main.py", line 372, in main
    app, opts, args, actions = init_qt(args)
  File "/usr/lib/calibre/calibre/gui2/main.py", line 51, in init_qt
    from calibre.gui2.ui import Main
  File "/usr/lib/calibre/calibre/gui2/ui.py", line 31, in <module>
    from calibre.gui2.widgets import ProgressIndicator
  File "/usr/lib/calibre/calibre/gui2/widgets.py", line 23, in <module>
    from calibre.gui2.progress_indicator import ProgressIndicator as _ProgressIndicator
  File "/usr/lib/calibre/calibre/gui2/progress_indicator/__init__.py", line 15, in <module>
    pi_error)
RuntimeError: Failed to load the Progress Indicator plugin: the PyQt4.QtCore module is version 1 but the progress_indicator module requires version -1

Thanks

Yes. I got it too.. I searched the forums and got this - https://bbs.archlinux.org/viewtopic.php … 93#p930493

Apparently, calibre package needs to be rebuilt (because of change in libs). Either you can wait till it is rebuilt and is available to upgrade.. Or you can install the AUR package.. I'm installing the calibre-bzr package from AUR now.

There is infact a bug filed against the calibre package - https://bugs.archlinux.org/task/24175
So, it might be resolved soon

Installing the calibre-bzr AUR package fixes this issue.. That package is at version 0.8.0 which seems to be greater than 0.7.59-1 in the official repository

I have the same problem here. I am waiting for the newer version in official repos, since I don't want to have too many packages installed from AUR.
