Calibre is a native Python 2.7 PyQt5 app on MacOS. It does _not_ run in
a VM. The Python 2.7 install is shipped as part of the calibre
application.
Calibre itself is just python. Many plugins do use shared libraries, but the
same python code can run on multiple platforms using the platform PyQT5.
This depends on plugin authors following the recommendation to make
plugins work for both Python2 and Python3. Calibre is written in Python
and relies on platform-specific Python libraries (PyQt5), so the Windows
and MacOS builds now use QEMU (previously they used VirtualBox)
to run a linux build system:
