I think that until GNOME Books doesn't support .epub files, there's not a big gain in displaying it. I think Evince should be used to open .djvu files, as the DJVU file format is usually used for compressed scanned books (or that's my experience, at least), so from a UX point of view, it should be handled by the same program that handles PDFs.
I personally do use Books for its amazing features regarding collections (inherited from Documents, of course), but as you said, it's not a good idea to have the app if it shows files it can't open. Hopefully, this will be fixed soon when native ePub/MOBI support comes to GNOME Books. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1584522 Title: [UIFe] Don't show GNOME Books by default To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu-gnome/+bug/1584522/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list [email protected] https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
