I had this error on an uptodate debian testing system:
sb@edwards:/tmp$ python /usr/bin/calibre
Traceback (most recent call last):

pi_error)
RuntimeError: Failed to load the Progress Indicator plugin: the sip module
implements API v8.0 to v8.1 but the progress_indicator module requires API v7.1
I found this bug which said that the error was fixed
I pulled calibre 0.7.50+dfsg-1 and calibre-bin 0.7.50+dfsg-1 from
unstable with
apt-get -t unstable install calibre
But calibre still wouldn't start.
When I tried running it from the command line, I got a segfault at
startup:
sb@edwards:/tmp$ python /usr/bin/calibre
Segmentation fault
