5.0 is out!
Can not build because sip5 (python-sip) is needed, which does not exists in openSUSE. Highest version from pyth-sip in use is 4.19.24. In pkgs.org I see this is also the highest version in all other distros. Don't know why upstream must use the new version. Whereat the stable version is 5 and version 4 will no longer supported. But stable version 5.4.0 can not downloaded. Only version 5.5.0dev.
You can use the pypi URL instead: https://files.pythonhosted.org/packages/source/s/sip/sip-5.4.0.tar.gz
Or, if you feel adventurous, mercurial with a _service file.
Thank you. I have try pythonhosted, but not find the right link. I don't like _service File. Will try it tomorrow. But think it takes some time till new version will be accepted.
This package doesn't seem to add a .desktop file for
ebook-viewer, can we consider adding that for easy access to the reader application?Will check it at next release/version.
Just now I saw this rather old request. What can I say... Miracle upon miracle. calibre-ebook-viewer.desktop is now in the calibre package. What lasts long finally becomes good. :-)
Heads up v6.13.0 is out
https://github.com/kovidgoyal/calibre/releases/tag/v6.13.0
Yes, but it doesn't build anymore since 6.12.0, because some build scripts are gone. Or have you a solution?
Yes, it's a mess. I had some time today to play a bit with it. See my branch. I can't get the hypenation module right. It wants to download from the Internet and I can't find a way around it (know too little python for that). If we can find a solution for that, it builds again.
I don't think that's the solution. MathJax was already used in 6.11 and it still built. The actual reason is that build scripts were suddenly removed. Among others resources/scripts.calibre_msgpack. Because the package actually builds. Only in the install section comes the error with the missing msgpack script. And as great as the software is, as strange is the developer.
Good news. Your changes coreblom and something else from Mageia brought me to the solution. Package has just been built locally. Will now build it in my home and then test it in my VM. If both are positive, the 6.14 comes today in Documentaion:Tools. :-)

calibre could not be compiled for a long time because of the ancient podofo. If you now accept the request, calibre should be built.
Can Calibre please be updated to 7.6.0 ?
Tag: https://github.com/kovidgoyal/calibre/releases/tag/v7.6.0
Changelog: https://github.com/kovidgoyal/calibre/blob/master/Changelog.txt
I'm thinking about how I should do this. As of 7.5, calibre can still be built under Leap, but can no longer be executed. I haven't tested it under Tumbleweed yet. Qt6 is probably too old. But I don't see any real advantage in the new version either. Or what are you missing in the 7.4 version?
Today there is an update of qt from 6.6.3 to 6.7. It fails because calibre needs 6.6.3.
Confirmed, distribution upgrade blocked by dependencies.
Wrong. Not calibre produce the error and need 6.6.3. The package python311-PyQt6 needs 6.6.3. So the problem is python311-PyQt6 and should be fixed.
