search bar, as we now have a separate search highlights toggle

just database/media/books. This can be turned off by customizing the

Fri Jan 14 22:15:01 UTC 2011 - fsundermeyer@opensuse.org
- reformatted complete calibre.changes file:
openSUSE:Factory requires a linewidth < 70
(refer to the dashed lines for linewidth)
-------------------------------------------------------------------
Thu Jan 13 09:35:04 UTC 2011 - fsundermeyer@opensuse.org
- removed Require: python-django-tagging since it is no longer
needed (searched the calibre sources for "tagging" and "django")
- added packages that are only required, to BuildRequires, too,
because
Requires should always be a subset of BuildRequires. If there
are packages that are only Required
* there is no way to check whether these packages are available
in the given repositories unless you install the package (the
build environment only contains packages from the given
repositories and the project
* the project's repository might become inconsistent, because
Required packages do not block a build. So a package might get
published, although a Required package does not build
-------------------------------------------------------------------
Wed Jan 12 16:01:20 UTC 2011 - fsundermeyer@opensuse.org
- another Requires fix
-------------------------------------------------------------------

assume that the file name is encoded in UTF-8. If UTF-8
decoding fails try to detect character encoding using
chardet. This is because most ZIP/EPUB files calibre comes
across seem to be utf-8 encoded.
