@DiapDealer

Thanks for your reply. As I explained above, I can't use Sigil 0.7.3 after checking or "beautifying" an EPUB with the calibre editor because it complains about the missing DOCTYPE et recreates nbsp as named entities.

I tried Sigil 0.7.4 (with Wine) after checking or "beautifying" an EPUB with the calibre editor and, at least, these problems are gone.

A first screenshot with calibre's editor shows how nbsp and nnbsp are displayed. For the second entity, I had to read its name in the lower right part (screenshot 2).

To finish a screenshot of a short text with Sigil 0.7.4 showing how nbsp and nnbsp are displayed (the last one with a white square).

To conclude, I think a binary of Sigil 0.7.4 seems to be usable after calibre's editor without creating some new problems and for this reason would be much appreciated.
