Epub extension handler/mime type not recognized in F14 SoaS release

Reported by: greenfeld Owned by: lucian
Priority: Unspecified by Maintainer Milestone: Unspecified by Release Team
Component: Browse Version: 0.90.x
Severity: Unspecified Keywords:
Cc: Distribution/OS: Fedora
Bug Status: Unconfirmed

Description

The epub file extension handler and mime type (when downloaded from within Browse) are not recognized in the F14 SoaS release. These files therefore cannot be read, even though Browse on other platforms knows how to handle epub files to an extent.

Tested with the F14 SoaS "Mango Lassi" release, which has Browse version 119. Used "A Tale of Two Cities" in epub format from Project Gutenberg (1) as well as a book from the Baen Free {to download, but not necessarily redistribute} Library (2).

Not a bug (or perhaps a SoaS enhancement request); epub files are handled by Read, and Sugar on a Stick does not include Read, nor its dependencies (evince, etc.).
