calibre (ebook reader) dependencies problem in natty (Ubuntu 11.04 )

[Tapas Mishra]

I tried installing calibre (via apt-get and synaptics both) got following errors


The following packages have unmet dependencies:

calibre: Depends: python (>= 2.6) but 2.7.1-0ubuntu5 is to be installed
         Depends: python-pypdf (>= 1.10) but 1.12-3 is to be installed
         Depends: python-cssutils (>= 0.9.7~) but 0.9.7~b2-2 is to be installed
         Depends: python-encutils (>= 0.9.5) but 0.9.7~b2-2 is to be installed
         Depends: python-cherrypy3 (>= 3.1.1) but 3.1.2-1 is to be installed
         Depends: python-qt4 (>= 4.7.3) but 4.8.3-2 is to be installed
         Depends: calibre-bin (>= 0.7.44+dfsg-1build1) but
0.7.44+dfsg-1build1 is to be installed


My OS Ubuntu 11.04 64 bit.

I could not understand what is python (>= 2.6) but 2.7.1-0ubuntu5  so left it.

Via synaptics installed
python-pypdf
python-cssutils
python-encutils
python-cherrypy3
upto here it worked well.

But when I proceeded to install pyhton-qt4 got following errors

            Depends: python (< 2.8) but 2.7.1-0ubuntu5 is to be installed
            Depends: sip-api-8.1 but it is a virtual package




So I am yet debugging this how ever I wanted to report this problem
here (for any possible suggestions)
and want to know what is meant by error message

"python (< 2.8) but 2.7.1-0ubuntu5 is to be installed"

I want to also clear I got these errors while using the GUI (Software Centre).
