I've the same issue: "Calibre won't launch". Since I've the kubuntu-ppa-ubuntu-next-backports-utopic enabled the installed version of calibre is "2.5.0+dfsg-1ubuntu1p" Follows what it appens at the prompt line command:
~$ LCALL=C calibre
python2.7: siplib.c:11980: sipEnumType_alloc: asserzione "(((currentType)->td_flags & 0x0007) == 0x0003)" non riuscita.
Annullato (core dump creato)

running calibre as superuser I got:

~$ xhost +
access control disabled, clients can connect from any host
~$ su -
Password: 
~# calibre
Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "/usr/bin/calibre", line 20, in <module>
    sys.exit(calibre())
  File "/usr/lib/calibre/calibre/gui_launch.py", line 40, in calibre
    main()
  File "/usr/lib/calibre/calibre/gui2/main.py", line 451, in main
    app, opts, args = init_qt(args)
  File "/usr/lib/calibre/calibre/gui2/main.py", line 100, in init_qt
    app = Application(args, override_program_name=override)
  File "/usr/lib/calibre/calibre/gui2/__init__.py", line 904, in __init__
    self.load_calibre_style()
  File "/usr/lib/calibre/calibre/gui2/__init__.py", line 1015, in load_calibre_style
    self.pi.load_style(icon_map)
TypeError: a value has type 'unicode' but 'QString' is expected

Instead of filing a new bug report I added a comment here ;)
As attachment the output of:
~# apport-cli --save=/root/calibre.log -f -p calibre

HTH
Best regards
