After selecting an EPUB file and clicking on the "View" button nothing happens.
If I open Calibre from a terminal, then the following error message is produced:

Failed to import PyQt module: PyQt6.QtWebEngineCore with error: libre2.so.10: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory

If I install the package re2, then the problem is resolved.

package version(s):

- Calibre 6.10.0-2
- re2 1:20221201-2

Steps to reproduce:

- Install Calibre on a system which doesn't have the package re2 installed
- Open Calibre
- Select an EPUB file
- Click on the "View" button
This task depends upon

Right, qt6-webengine need re2, which is why it already depends on it. Sounds to me like you're doing partial updates.

You're right! I'd run `pacman -Sy` just before I installed Calibre. Sorry for the spurious bug report!
