the Mini won't see two books
I am on Calibre 1.3 using Joel's latest plugin, and I have problems with two books, a pdf and an epub. The epub especially is puzzling, since I have checked it with Sigil, too, and it looks fine. Since it is in the public domain (I've converted it to EPUB from the MOBI version on the MR public library) I am attaching it in case anyone can shed any light.

Funnily enough, I can open the books without problems with koreader.
With the standard Kobo software (I am on firwmare 2.6.1) the two books do not appear in the library view, and in the shelf view (since I send them to shelves) I see an empty cover with a "buy now" button on the right. If I connect the reader to my laptop, Calibre does see both books.

I have rebooted the device with no change in the results: the books don't show up. Any ideas on how to fix this? I would be happy to edit the .sqlite file if somebody could give me some pointers.
