So to my problem: I use kepubify with my book -> it outputs as kepub.epub -> I add it to Calibre -> send it to my device (Libra 1, latest firmware). For some reason, the book shows up as a regular epub on Libra, not as kobo epub. What am I doing wrong here?

I've tried it with several books, with both online and downloaded kepubify versions. I seem to remember it working fine on Windows. I assume it's something Calibre-related, been awhile since I've messed with it. What am I missing? Teach me your masterful ways, please
Kepubify with Linux works well here. If You open Your *.kepub.epub book with Sigil or with the calibre editor outside calibre, do You see something like <span class="koboSpan" id="kobo.3.1"> ecc? What if You don't use calibre to sideload the book but do it with Your file manager?

May be that calibre itself send the normal epub and not the *.kepub.epub book to Your Libra. Did You set the driver configuration to send the kepub file?

I seldom use kepubify but when I use it I create a *.kepub file using the --calibre option (and the -i option) and then I add it to calibre. At the end I sideload it to my Kobo. Calibre will send it as *.kepub.epub file.
