"calibre now contains a new command line tool called epub-fix
that can automatically fix common problems in EPUB files that cause
them to be rejected by poorly designed publishing services. The tool is
plugin based for extensible functionality in the future. Currently, it
can fix unmanifested files and workaround the date and svg
preserveaspectratio bugs of epubcheck."
