SUMMARY
Calibre and Calibre E-book Viewer fail to install in Discover

STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1. Open Discover
2. Search for Calibre and click on install button

OBSERVED RESULT
Calibre won't install and Discover gives the message at the bottom of its window: "Dependency solution failed" (my translation (might be wrong) from original german message: "Auflösung der Abhängigkeit fehlgeschlagen".

EXPECTED RESULT
Calibre installs

SOFTWARE/OS VERSIONS

That's a problem with the underlying packages themselves on your system, not with anything Discover is doing; If you use `pkcon install [package name]`, you'll get the same thing.

Moving to neon.
Comment 2 Jonathan Riddell 2020-06-22 16:52:32 UTC 
Calibre isn't a KDE project so we don't include it in Neon.  This does mean it won't install with the newer Qt built in Neon.

It can be installed from e.g. https://flathub.org/apps/details/com.calibre_ebook.calibre
