Public bug reported:

On startup, Calibre throws the following message about a problem.  The report is:
Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "/usr/lib/calibre/calibre/gui2/main.py", line 273, in initialize_db_stage2
    self.start_gui(db)
  File "/usr/lib/calibre/calibre/gui2/main.py", line 213, in start_gui
    main.initialize(self.library_path, db, self.listener, self.actions)
  File "/usr/lib/calibre/calibre/gui2/ui.py", line 371, in initialize

  File "/usr/lib/calibre/calibre/gui2/cover_flow.py", line 252, in init_cover_flow_mixin
    self.cover_flow = CoverFlow(parent=self)

    config['cover_flow_queue_length']+1)
TypeError: PictureFlow(): argument 1 has unexpected type 'Main'

After startup, if I click on a book name, a crash occurs.
