Can't Open .epub Files

[Mindforms]

I run Kubuntu 19.10. Not only am I unable to open .pdf files as I can't install pymupdf (which isn't a big deal because I already have a good PDF reader), but most importantly, I can't open .epub files either.

Here's my log when I try opening one:

BeautifulSoup cannot parse None so we need to handle the case
