> The app is 253MB (OS X version)! Is it just me or is that crazy? The bulk of that is Qt. If your OS had a standard Qt library thaf every application that uses Qt could reuse, Calibre wouldn't have to distribute Qt itself. But since on McOS10 the preferred method is to distribute every depedency over and over again in each app that needs that dependency, you end up with that bloat. The common retort is, "253 MB? We have terabytes of storage now! Who cares about a few extra megabytes here and there."
