I needed this diff to make it build. calibre (the binary) should be
fixed to call python2.6 instead of python.
If I give it a pdf, it just sits there, chews cycles, stops after a while and
nothing happens.
Maybe because libpodofo is missing?
It tries to run itself during install. Not having X on the build box
might have been an issue..
