FBReader is an ebook reader for linux that is packaged in Fedora 15. You
can use it to remotely browse a website that exposes an opds epub
catalog (such as a publican generated docs website).

Here are the steps to add a publican website epub catalog to FBReader,
using docs.redhat.com as the example:

To add docs.redhat.com to FBReader:

1. yum install fbreader

2. create the file: /usr/share/FBReader/network/docs.redhat.com.xml

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<!DOCTYPE catalog SYSTEM "catalog.dtd">
<catalog type="opds">
<site>docs.redhat.com</site>
<title>Red Hat Docs OPDS Catalog</title>
<summary>Red Hat Documentation</summary>
<link rel="main"
type="application/atom+xml">http://docs.redhat.com/docs/en-US/opds.xml</link>
<feeds>
<condition
show="always">http://docs.redhat.com/docs/en-US/opds.xml<</condition>
</feeds>
<authentication type="basic"/>

</catalog>

3. Run FBReader.
