packtpub-cli's Issues

Failure to download books

This just started today, as far as I can tell.

Writing to "Oracle Advanced PL/SQL Developer Professional Guide.epub" ... stream.js:94
throw er; // Unhandled stream error in pipe.
^
Error: ENOENT, open 'Oracle Advanced PL/SQL Developer Professional Guide.epub'
at Error (native)

Download doesn't work

At the moment Download only downloads the 403 webpage into a file with a .pdf file extension.

We think this is probably the recaptcha and will help work it out.
