I'm running calibre (self-installed) on Lucid. I have 0.8.24 and it's
telling me that it has an update but installing it requires python
>=2.7.1 and <3.0. I've got python 2.6, and see only 2.6 and 3 in the
repositories. Anybody know how to work this so I can upgrade?

In accordance with my lazy nature, I took the easy way from [1]:

<quote>
Binary install
calibre has a binary install that includes private versions of all its
dependencies...

</quote>

and there it is in:
/opt/calibre/lib/python2.7

But, as I wrote, this is the easy way and there is the price in the form
of redundant packages, bypassing repositories etc.

You might have more or less success using the Calibre-lucid PPA:
https://launchpad.net/~n-muench/+archive/calibre-lucid

The link shows warnings that the PPA is not being updated, so I'm not
even going to try it.

OTOH, the binary install is working fine.

This had better be a single-user system (http://pad.lv/885027).


There's a PPA that provides Python 2.7 for Lucid:
