Actually they have everything to do with the update IMO. I had a meltdown on the beta forum when I discovered the USB update neither validated DB integrity nor upgraded it to kepub format. Had we beta testers been given the opportunity to fully test the USB upgrade path, I think many if not most of the issues would have been caught.

Turns out there are technical reasons why kepub conversion wasn't possible, but I did give the devs an alternative method for next go-around.

Live and learn...
