Bug Description

Binary package hint: fbreader

When downloading an epub-format book from the Internet (e.g. http://www.gutenberg.org/cache/epub/289/pg289.epub), or when opening from Nautilus, fbreader is not offered as an option for opening the file. It should be.

Still present. It's possible to open an .epub or .mobi with fbreader but you have to:
 * right click on the file
 * select "Open with Other applications..."
 * Click on the button to show all applications
 * double click on "Ebook reader"

Please associate fbreader to these file types:
.epub: application/epub+zip
.mobi: application/x-mobipocket-ebook
