On Ubuntu 20.04 few months ago I installed Calibre from Ubuntu Store official repository.

I have been using Calibre for months, but today opening it from Ubuntu Launcher and nothing happens, no error.

Executing:
calibre
from terminal and the output is:
============
Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "/usr/bin/calibre", line 20, in <module>
    sys.exit(calibre())
  File "/usr/lib/calibre/calibre/gui_launch.py", line 73, in calibre
    main(args)
  File "/usr/lib/calibre/calibre/gui2/main.py", line 543, in main
    listener = create_listener()
  File "/usr/lib/calibre/calibre/gui2/main.py", line 514, in create_listener
    return Listener(address=gui_socket_address())
  File "/usr/lib/calibre/calibre/utils/ipc/server.py", line 110, in __init__
    self._listener._unlink.cancel()
AttributeError: 'NoneType' object has no attribute 'cancel'
============

Command:
calibre --version
outputs:
calibre (calibre 4.99.4)

I tried:
sudo apt purge calibre
sudo apt autoremove
sudo apt install calibre
but the problem is the same.
