my mistake....
from http://calibre-ebook.com/download_linux

"Make sure your system has python ≥ 2.7.1 not 3.x"
But the rest is ok. Slackware's 2.6.6 is too old and it is the problem

>> Hello list,

>> Wondering if the maintainer of the Calibre package could update to the

>> there's quite a long time period between those versions.  I have tried using

>> Any chance of an updated build script?

>> Thanks a lot.
