So in the directory there is a cover.jpg, a metadata.opf and the epub file.
Is it possible to include the jpg and the opf in the epub ?

I use Calibre 1.25 with Ubuntu 14.

Regards,
They ARE already included in the .epub file.

Calibre keeps a copy of the cover for display in the GUI as not all formats support covers. The .opf file is kept to allow for recovery when/if the Main Calibre metadata database gets corrupted.
