For info FBReader is able to display the version converted to EPUB format.

Do you think my installation is missing something or is there an easy fix?

Thanks

Nick
0.5.11 comes with two viewer applications. lrfviewer (lrf only) and ebook-viewer (all other supported formats). Check to see that ebook-viewer was installed, it might be a separate package.
