Calibre 7 crashes on Wayland
I have Ubuntu Linux 22.04.3 LTS and Calibre 7.2, and I cannot open the app without it segfaulting almost immediately:
Code:
$ calibre qt.qpa.theme.dbus: Session DBus not running. qt.qpa.theme.dbus: Application will not react to setting changes. Check your DBus installation. Segmentation fault (core dumped) Code:
calibre[2846607]: segfault at 0 ip 00007fa182a9010b sp 00007ffc1fcf74e8 error 4 in libX11-xcb.so.1.0.0[7fa182a90000+1000] likely on CPU 17 (core 1, socket 0) Code: 00 01 5d c3 0f 1f 00 c3 0f 1f 80 00 00 00 00 f3 0f 1e fa e9 77 ff ff ff 0f 1f 80 00 00 00 00 f3 0f 1e fa 48 8b 87 30 0a 00 00 <48> 8b 00 c3 90 f3 0f 1e fa 48 8b 87 30 0a 00 00 89 70 48 c3 00 f3 Code:

I recently got a new PC, a Thelio from System76, running Pop!_os 22.04 with AMD CPU and GPU. I tried Wayland, and it actually worked well enough to do some extensive book editing. Not well enough to run full time...but surprisingly well. Maybe one day soon?

Well if it works for whatever subset of software/workflows you use it for, I guess its ready *for you*. But in general, it has a loooooooong way to go and its design means it is particularly susceptible to politics which means it moves verrrrrrry slowly.
