I have an old machine ( dir /lost+found = Jan 9 2012) and calibre has
always worked, last use was 2 or 3 weeks ago, last ugrade were:
2019-01-03: calibre-bin:amd64 (3.35.0+dfsg-1, 3.35.0+dfsg-1+b1)
2019-02-24: calibre-bin:amd64 (3.35.0+dfsg-1+b1, 3.39.1+dfsg-2
calibre:amd64 (3.35.0+dfsg-1, 3.39.1+dfsg-2)
Today I have the same error (crash before starting) in buster (calibre
3.39.1+dfsg-2).

I use the suggested trick of purge calibre calibre-bin and I have this
dpkg warning:

After the purge:
ls /usr/lib/calibre/

(calibre and html5lib were directory, six.pyc was a file)
dpkg -S /usr/lib/calibre

(were installed calibre calibre-bin and the same package listed above)
Now calibre runs fine.
