#45 Wrong mimetype for .epub files

[Ahmad Samir]

Hello.

Trying to open a .epub file with FBReader always fails with an error message of something like:
"application to open blah.epub is not available"

I have to use "Open With" every time I want to open an epub with FBReader.

Looking at the source code of Ghose Commander I see that the mimetype of .epub is defined as "application/epub"; changing that to "application/epub+zip" fixes the issue.

AFAIK the correct mimetype for .epub files is "application/epub+zip"; according to these sources anyway:
http://www.idpf.org/epub/301/spec/epub-ocf.html#app-media-type
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/EPUB

Thanks in advance.
