            Bug ID: 412581
           Summary: Okular fails to open an unencrypted ePub
           Product: okular
           Version: 1.6.3
          Platform: Ubuntu Packages

SUMMARY
I recently came across the Baen Free library. They offer ebooks to read in many
formats. Usually, my preferred format is epub, so I downloaded one. I tried to
open it in Okular to verify if it's DRM free, but it failed to open. However,
because from opening fine in FBReader, I can tell it's DRM free and thus should
work.

STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1. Download
http://baencd.freedoors.org/Books/Echoes%20of%20Honor/Echoes_of_Honor.epub
2. Open it in Okular, with okular-extra-backends installed

OBSERVED RESULT
Error: Could not open file

EXPECTED RESULT
Ebook opened
