Hi.
I have a problem with my Clara I can't seem to be able to fix.
Normally I read kepubs, but lately I'm playing with fonts and wanted to open some documents in the epub format, which handles typesetting better than Kobo's engine used to display kepubs. So I sideloaded them to the device without converting to kepub (by disabling "Extended Kobo features" in the Calibre Kobo Touch Extended driver plugin) and I found that my Clara crashes everytime I try to open an epub file.
Same thing happens with plain html files, which seem to be handled also by RMSDK.
Some background: I have a fairly large number of books and my DB is over 700 MB. This probably doesn't matter because I've hidden my books folder with a dot and placed a fresh vanilla database I had backed up and my device still can't open epubs.
I'm running firmware 4.26.16704 and I'm using kobopatch with the following kobopatch.yaml:
Code:

I'm also running
the package with KFMon, KOReader and Plato available here at MobileRead.
Any ideas about what is preventing my device to open epubs? This is driving me nuts. Can I access crash logs anywhere?
