Cool, thanks!

Calibre uses a very complicated setup.py and I could not figure out at a
glance whether such features can be turned off.

I will send over another message obtained with git-format-patch then. It
will have to patch files and the required changes to the calibre
PKGBUILD.

As a note, I had to modify the patch once (and once only so far) because
of minor code changes one patched file.

Best,
