Bug ID: 420775
Summary: Bad error message when opening .epub files without
.epub support
Product: okular
Version: unspecified
Platform: Archlinux Packages
OS: Linux
Status: REPORTED
Severity: normal
Priority: NOR
Component: EPub backend
Assignee: okular-de...@kde.org
Reporter: volker.weissm...@gmx.de
Target Milestone: ---
The Archpackage of okular has ebook-tools as an optional dependency.
If you don't install ebook-tools and open a .epub file, okular displays "Could
not open file:///path/to/file.epub" and the following message gets printed to
stderrr.
org.kde.okular.core: Invalid plugin factory for
"/usr/lib/qt/plugins/okular/generators/okularGenerator_epub.so":"Cannot load
library /usr/lib/qt/plugins/okular/generators/okularGenerator_epub.so:
(libepub.so.0: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory)"
It would be way nicer, if okular would instead display e.g. "Could not open
file:///path/to/file.epub, because the ebook-tools package is missing."
