Title: Calibre problem
Post by: Dj on Thu Dec 29 15:23:24 2022

Hello!
I installed Calibre official way (by downloading from source).
No any icon, no way to open files with calibre.
 I can only start calibre via terminal.
Any ideas ?

Hi Dj,
So Good news. I did run the script on my machine. Surprise everything is in place.

Icons and Launcher are in place. This is is very interesting. I will try to build a package.
Means  you will be able to install with cards soon.

BR,
Thierry

Hello Dj,

http://nutyx.org/en/?type=pkg&branch=rolling&arch=x86_64&searchpkg=calibre

Make sure first to remove your version of calibre, otherwise you will have a conflict with the binary of NuTyX.

Code: [Select]

sudo calibre-uninstall
Answer yes to remove Icons as well

Code: [Select]

sudo cards sync
sudo cards install calibre
You show me the error message.It will most probably complain of already files in place. That's because calibre-uninstall doesn't make a proper job

BR,
Thierry

Wonderful. I was actually thinking of creating a package for it, as a way to learn packaging. Where can I find the Pkgfile you created for calibre?

Thanks.

Wonderful. I was actually thinking of creating a package for it, as a way to learn packaging. ...

Actualy this package is a very difficult exemple. I had to search a lot for my mistake. They  are a lot of specifics actions done in this package.

So probably the best example to start with.

I would say, start by reading through the all documentation. You can also check all my YouTube tutorials (https://www.youtube.com/@gnulinuxnutyx3474).

Good Luck,
Thierry
