Calibre 0.8.7 doesn't import description?

Hello,

Ich imported some Epub with a description. I could read the Description from the same Epub File in Sigil. Calibre doesn't show the Description, and, when i converted the Book with Option insert Metadata as First Page then Calibre deletes the Description.
When I import the same Book with Description in the First Page, Calibre shows the Description.

What can i do to?

Greetings

Gucky

Hello,

When i open an ebook with sigil, copy the Discription Content into the Coverage Content, i see the Content in Calibre in the Description Field.
When i now convert the Epub in Calibre with Description in the First Page i have the Discription in the First Page, too.

greetings

Why do a task in Sigil that Calibre can do for you on a simple conversion?

That said:
Preferences: (Conversion) Common options: Structure Detection:
Remove the Tick "Insert Metadata..."
