Ah - you need to be using a Python 2.6 based system to use this
(Fedora 11, or Ubuntu 9.04, etc). This is the trouble with the current
FBReader Activity - most of its internal are composed of binary blobs.

Anyway - hopefully we won't have to wait for long to get Epub support
in Read - I have it working quite nicely in my system, and there's
only one patch that needs to go to upstream WebKit before I can merge
the epub-support repo into mainline.

Thanks,
Sayamindu
