calibre's GitHub releases keep files only for the newest version: when 9.16.0 came out, the pinned 9.15.0 .txz and .dmg links there started returning 404, so installing calibre failed on macOS and Linux. download.calibre-ebook.com keeps every version; the files are the same (sizes and SHA-256 checked).

Installing calibre failed on Linux with
404 (Not Found)(seen in a log attached to #86). calibre's GitHub releases only keep files for the newest version, so the pinned 9.15.0.txz/.dmglinks died when 9.16.0 came out. download.calibre-ebook.com keeps every version, as the Windows.msilink already relies on.https://download.calibre-ebook.com/9.15.0/….engines.json is embedded, so macOS/Linux users need the next release (1.11.1) for this fix. Until then they can install calibre themselves and use "Use my copy…".
