Alright, what I did now is I copied an iBooks (zipped file, so a folder) out of Library into Documents (because the script asked me if I want to replace the iBooks file, as it already existed.)

Then I tried to unpack it and got the ff error:

Problem adding mimetype to ePub "522063581.epub":

sh: line 0: cd: /Users/okn/Documents/522063581.epub/: No such file or directory

And really this file is gone!!

If I unzip the iBooks file in the Library/Containers …

more / less the same error:

Problem adding mimetype to ePub "522063581.epub":

sh: line 0: cd: /Users/okn/Library/Containers/com.apple.BKAgentService/Data/Documents/iBooks/Books/522063581.epub/: No such file or directory

The file is actually in the Trash:

522063581 20.08.14.epub
also with:
522063581.epub

So here I'm stuck, if you know a way out, very good.

But then if the iBooks file is DRM-locked the whole exercise would be useless anyway.
