My archiver complains as follows when I try to examine content.opf:
Code:
7-Zip 9.04 beta Copyright (c) 1999-2009 Igor Pavlov 2009-05-30

Processing archive: /home/cap/Desktop/SHARED/Library/Stout_Rex/NeroWolfe/20_PrisonersBase/PrisonersBase.epub
Extracting content.opf Unsupported Method
Sub items Errors: 1
ePubCheck validates the file after the Viewer is done, so there's obviously something different in how the files are being decompressed between apps.
"Unsupported Method" is a dead giveaway that it is not a bug, just a difference.
This does not happen if I open it with FBreader first -- only with eBook Viewer.
I'm on Ubuntu 10.04, using Calibre 0.7.2.
Any thoughts on how I can access these "View"ed ePubs?

Maybe that version of 7-zip has problems.
I can open a Calibre (viewer modified) EPUB with the standard Ubuntu (Lucid 32 bit) Archive Manager.
