Attempting to install latest Calibre on Centos-7, getting:

Can anybody advise me what this tells me? (other than SOMETHING wrong with some certificate...)
Thanks!

I tried making sure all the packages were installed on the bottom of the page:
http://calibre-ebook.com/download_linux http://calibre-ebook.com/download_linux
but then qmake wasn’t available, so I found I needed qt3 installed. Installed that and tried installing again:
python setup.py install Traceback (most recent call last): File "setup.py", line 13, in <module> import setup.commands as commands File "/home/xulu/Downloads/calibre/calibre-2.47.0/setup/commands.py", line 28, in <module> from setup.translations import POT, GetTranslations, Translations, ISO639, ISO3166 File "/home/xulu/Downloads/calibre/calibre-2.47.0/setup/translations.py", line 14, in <module> from setup.parallel_build import parallel_check_output File "/home/xulu/Downloads/calibre/calibre-2.47.0/setup/parallel_build.py", line 14, in <module> from setup.build_environment import cpu_count File "/home/xulu/Downloads/calibre/calibre-2.47.0/setup/build_environment.py", line 98, in <module> from PyQt5.QtCore import PYQT_CONFIGURATION ImportError: No module named PyQt5.QtCore
Hmm. So I tried:
sudo pip install python-qt5 Collecting python-qt5 Using cached python-qt5-0.1.10.zip No files/directories in /tmp/pip-build-5OToGt/python-qt5/pip-egg-info (from PKG-INFO)
and get the error above. So I’m stuck there. But I don’t see a /tmp/pip-build…. either??

I finally got it compiled and when I run it in virtualbox 5.0.12, I get this:
Could not initialize GLX
Maybe it would work on a real box??

VBox has virtual GLX support, it has to be enabled and configured, and of course, the guest would need GL installed, etc.

The specific problem I had can be worked around just by following the instructions on the Calibre downloadpge for "manual install". I did that and it appears to work properly.

Good! I don’t know how Johnny keeps the centos distro rolling. Getting all the pieces to make it work is quite interesting.

Calibre is a powerful e-book management program (take a look at calibre-ebook.com), written in Python.
What commands did you run to trigger this error?
the recommended way to install it on Linux systems is:
sudo -v && wget -nv -O- https://raw.githubusercontent.com/kovidgoyal/calibre/master/setup/linux-inst... | sudo python -c "import sys; main=lambda:sys.stderr.write('Download failed\n'); exec(sys.stdin.read()); main()"
there are a couple of alternatives but they're all very much like that.
here's what I actually ran the last time I attempted this:
wget -nv -O- https://raw.githubusercontent.com/kovidgoyal/calibre/master/setup/linux-inst... | python -c "import sys; main=lambda x,y:sys.stderr.write('Download failed\n'); exec(sys.stdin.read()); main('~/calibre-bin', True)" 2015-12-22 07:44:40 URL:https://raw.githubusercontent.com/kovidgoyal/calibre/master/setup/linux-inst... [25887/25887] -> "-" [1] Installing to /home/fredex/calibre-bin/calibre Downloading tarball signature securely...

googling for that doesn't turn up much help for Calibre, though similar (but different) sets of errors turn up in a lot of places. So far I've not found any of them helpful.
One of them said something about the installed Python packages being broken in some way, and that if he rebuilt it from source and installed his that the problem went away. But I'm not yet ready to go that effort, still holding out for a simpler solution.
I also posted on the Calibre fora (forums for the Latinly-challenged) and am waiting for advice there.

I skimmed that python script, and it seems to be making an SSL connection to https://code.calibre-ebook.com/ which appears to have a self-signed certificate. It looks like it includes the cert file, but python 2.7 doesn't appear to like you just using httplib.HTTPSConnection without a key file too, which isn't included. (see https://docs.python.org/2/library/httplib.html#httplib.HTTPSConnection )
I suspect this must be a bug in the upstream code.
