Subject: [bug#43249] Resolve Calibre run-time dependency
Date: Mon, 7 Sep 2020 00:17:23 +0545
[Message part 1 (text/plain, inline)]
Esteemed maintainers,

Currently, Calibre can't open .epub files unless `qtwebengine` package is
also available in one's $GUIX_PROFILE. Neither can the stand-alone
`ebook-viewer` program supplied with Calibre. It exits with the complaint:
"Could not find QtWebEngineProcess".

Attached is a patch to fix the issue. QtWebEngineProcess is now made
available to all Calibre binaries via QTWEBENGINE_PATH set during a new
'wrap-program phase introduced with the patch.

Thank you
