Hi,

A number of people had issues while upgrade to the latest Diablo release related to availability of a newer version of libbz2. I did not quite understand what steps exactly lead to the issue, however to avoid this problems in future I uploaded FBReader to the extras repository. So from now on, you should not really need to add one more repository to install FBReader

Because of all the dependency issues I've had with 3rd party repositories I decided not to use them anymore. Thanks for not having to part with FBReader!

Id supports most of the free formats, (have you even checked the fbreader link above?). You can put the books in any folder and then add them to the library in FBreader.

Change the library path by click on the icon that looks like a screwdriver and a wrench, then select the Library tab.

To add a book to the library, click the icon that looks like a book with a + next to it, navigate to the directory where you keeps books (if not in the library path above) then pick the book.

All this is described in the help file that comes with FBReader.
