** Description changed:

  Binary package hint: calibre
  
  Ubuntu 10.10, i386
  calibre 0.7.18+dfsg-1
+ 
+ $ ebook-viewer --version
+ ebook-viewer (calibre 0.7.18)
  
  I found that ebook-viewer from calibre package cannot display correctly
  several eBooks those are handled well by FBreader. Problem is with
  encoding. I have one eBook example, I used this example in #723046
  already.
  
  The same book in different eBook formats can be downloaded from here:
  http://www.palmknihy.cz/free/index.php?BOOK=468
  
  The book is in Czech language. FBreader opens the book correctly in all
  formats except "mobi UNICODE" (#723046).
  
  EPUB format is displayed correctly with ebook-viewer, you can use it as
  a reference.
  
  ebook-viewer doesn't show Czech characters well for these formats:
  PRC
  PDB
  
  As FBreader can display the same book correctly, I guess that ebook-
  viewer has some issue with encoding.
  
  When I try to open ebook in "UNICODE MOBI" format with ebook-viewer, I
  get an error that ebook is protected with DRM and cannot be opened. I
  think this is not true...
