I tried to download the .lit file for Wizardry Compiled from
http://www.baen.com/library/ (since there's no .epub and the FAQ says Calibre prefers .lit over .prc for conversion), but whenever Calibre tries to convert it to put it on my reader it comes up with this error:
Code:
Traceback (most recent call last):

raise EPubException("not a ZIP .epub OCF container")
EPubException: not a ZIP .epub OCF container
Segmentation fault
Note also that Calibre couldn't read metada from this file (complained about not being a valid .opf file or something; forgot to save that error).
Also, the ebook viewer within Calibre can read the .lit file perfectly fine, it just doesn't seem to want to convert it.
When I try to convert it to a MOBI, it just spits out a segmentation fault error.
