** Description changed:

  Binary package hint: evince
  
- I just got an electronic reader and discovered that the new standard
- e-book format EPUB can't be read by any program in Ubuntu. It would be a
- good thing if the default document reader, Evince, could support this
- type of file.

+ 2) apt-cache policy evince

+         100 /var/lib/dpkg/status

+ 3) What is expected to happen is when one attempts to open an epub file
+ via evince, it does so successfully.

+ 4) What happens instead with the example attachment
