Read claims cbr/cbz support but does not seem to have a handler for it

Description
Read claims to support (Comic Book) cbr & cbz files in its activity.info file.
But when one launches a .cbz file in Read nothing appears, although Read does not crash.
The .cbr extension also implies RAR compression according to Wikipedia (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Comic_book_archive) which I do not think OLPC builds include support for.
Tested with the free CBRs (with .cbz extension) at http://www.moderntales.com/

I would expect unzip to be sufficient here, which is already included.

dsd, upstream bug [1] have a explanation about why zip is needed.
I wait a decision here. If we can't include zip, I need remove the mime type.

Removed support of cbr & cbz with 07c85afc5534e7e0322e801e024c85b4b78adb86
Filled #4241 to add support again when dependencies available.
About .cbr, I agree we should remove support.
About .cbz, evince, I have downloaded http://www.moderntales.com/cbr/8/hotelfred_1.cbz and evince can't open it.
But the problem is solved if we install the zip package. (yum install zip)
dsd: can we add it to our image?
