I attempted to install the package from the ppa... this is the error 
message I got:

Press return to continue.

Once I removed the 1.6.5 package and then installed the 1.7 package, it 
installed OK.

I really like the new Bookshelf Manager... :@)

No glitches found, but I've only just started playing.  :@)
