Subject: gnome-documents: Don't show gnome-books by default Package: gnome-documents Version: 3.20.0-2 Severity: normal
*** Please type your report below this line *** I think the "Books" app included in GNOME is so incomplete that it would be better to set NoDisplay=True for it. I believe the only thing it does is view .cbr and .cbz files (usually used for comic books) [1] but those files can be just as easily viewed in evince "Document Viewer" or other apps available in Debian. What I expected when I first launched "Books" was to be able to view .epub books. Although it shows my epubs in a list, it does not actually open the files. [2] Besides those two commits (an initial implementation of Books and a warning that it doesn't actually do much), no work has really been done on making Books any more useful and it's been over a year. I have svn commit access but I wanted to confirm with others whether this is the right decision and to document it in case anyone complains.
