Calibre is a free and open-source e-book management software that enables users to read, edit, and convert e-books. In this tutorial, we will guide you through the steps to install Calibre on FreeBSD Latest.
Before we proceed, make sure that you have root access to your FreeBSD Latest system. Additionally, ensure that your system is updated by running the following command:
sudo pkg update && sudo pkg upgrade
Calibre requires the installation of several dependencies on the FreeBSD Latest system. To install these dependencies, execute the following command:
sudo pkg install py38-pip py38-pillow py38-lxml py38-pygments py38-cssselect graphviz py38-tz
Once the dependencies are installed, download the latest version of Calibre from the official website using the following command:
sudo wget -O- https://download.calibre-ebook.com/linux-installer.sh | sudo sh /dev/stdin
This command will download the Linux installer. Since FreeBSD is not officially supported, the installer will still work. After the installation is complete, you can launch Calibre by executing the following command:
sudo /usr/local/bin/calibre
After launching Calibre for the first time, you will be prompted to configure the software. Follow the on-screen instructions to set up your preferences.
