Package: calibre
Version: 1.25.0+dfsg-1build1
Severity: minor
Dear Maintainer,
hese are actually two related issues.
1) When run from command line, ebook-viewer does not have an icon. The
fault is in its desktop file, the icon line should be like this:
Icon=viewer
(now it is Icon=calibre)
It refers to an icon installed to this location:
/usr/share/calibre/images/viewer.png
I think it needs to be installed somewhere else in order for the icon to
be picked up.
This is also a bug in Ubuntu:
https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/calibre/+bug/1340179
but looking at the current Debian install, it applies as well.
Second, calibre itself does not advertise all its mimetypes, as it should.
The corresponding line in the desktop file should be
MimeType=application/x-mobipocket-subscription;application/vnd.openxmlformats-officedocument.wordprocessingml.document;text/html;application/ereader;application/oebps-package+xml;image/vnd.djvu;application/x-sony-bbeb;application/vnd.ms-word.document.macroenabled.12;application/x-ruby;text/rtf;application/pdf;application/x-cbz;application/x-mobipocket-ebook;application/x-cbr;application/x-mobi8-ebook;text/fb2+xml;application/vnd.oasis.opendocument.text;application/epub+zip;text/plain;application/xhtml+xml;
but is:
MimeType=x-content/ebook-reader;
The same goes for the ebook-viewer subprogram.
This is also a bug in Ubuntu:
https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/calibre/+bug/543140
and it aplies to Debian as per above.
calibre ships desktop files in /src/calibre/linux.py, I guess
Debian should stick to them as much as possible,
even though I understand that retrieving the info needed
from that code would be difficult.
