The LICENSE file specifies that this crate uses MPL, while the Cargo.toml specifies that it uses MIT, which is what shows up on crates.io. In addition, this crate partially depends on the epub crate, which is GPL, so I suspect there may be a possibility that the entire crate might need to be licensed under GPL.

As far as I know epub crate
is used only by unit test for checking composed dummy ebook.
I don't know if that matters in that case. Just a comment on issue.

ping @Michael-F-Bryan any word on this issue?

as epub crate seems to be only used to test, there is no code from it in mdbook-epub binary, so it is not derivative of it, so the license of it does not matter. But obviously IANAL.
