Just encountered this by chance, in the process of solving the problem on my machine

I will investigate the issue, but I am sure that the current xulrunner-9.0 is "too new" to run that code.

I got things working under Ubuntu 12.04 LTS. I grabbed the Xulrunner 1.9.2 deb archive as the base. This required satisfying a dependency for lubhunspell-1.20 >=1.2.11 (I had 1.30, and needed the earlier one too.) Once Xulrunner was installed, I could install the Lucidor deb package mentioned above.
There was theoretically a Lucidor 0.9.7 deb archive available on the Lucidor site, but the site is down and I haven't found a mirror with it. The 0.9.1 version seems to work.
There is also Lucifox, a Firefox extension that implements the Lucidor functionality, available at
https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/fir...ucifox/?src=ss
It's what I normally use, and prefer to EPUBReader, which is the other alternative. (See
https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/fir...reader/?src=ss ) EPUBReader insists on adding the ePub file to a catalog and keeping a local copy in the Firefox profile directory, neither of which I want.
