Comment 18 for bug 1360200

This is interesting, adding the output below but if I run calibre from the command line, no problems. Just when I run it from an icon, like Cairo-Dock or from the application menu in KDE. So I tinkered a bit, and found the application was being launched with command calibre --detach %F, I removed the %F and still crashed. Removed the --detach and it worked. Running it from command line with the --detach argument also fails to work.

In my case I have a work around, though obviously something is not working 100%.

I have yet to find a way to add it to Cairo again, I get an error about unable to find description file.
