When I try to open certain (non-DRM) ePub files that I have downloaded, Sigil gives me the following error:

Cannot read file
/Users/[username]/.Sigil/scratchpad/.[alphanumeric string]/META-INF/container.xml:
Permission denied.

If I open the same ePub in Stanza and just do a Save As as another ePub file, then open that document in Sigil, I do not get the error.

Anyone have experience with this?

Sigil 0.1.8

MacOS X 10.5.8
