iBooks on El Capitan does indeed complain about the EPUB being corrupt
("This book can't be opened./The book is corrupt"), seemingly at
random.  It does work for a while, then decides it's corrupt and
closes it.  Reopening it, it works for a while again.  I'm not sure
whose bug this is; iBooks, Sphinx, or otherwise.  iBooks doesn't give
enough information to even think about tracking it down.
