The problem with all writers being visible in Writer in EPUB. #4165

Description

@daydreamrabbit

What happened?

In my epub metadata, I have:
<dc:creator id="creator-aut">미아키 스가루</dc:creator>
aut
<dc:creator id="creator-art">E9l</dc:creator>
art
<dc:creator id="creator-trl">현정수</dc:creator>
trl

If I modify the opf like this,
shouldn't only 미아키 스가루 appear in the Write section?
Everyone is showing up. Is this a bug?

I contacted Support, but I haven't received a response, so I'm not sure what the exact issue is.

The OPF file contains the correct information, but I believe this issue is a bug, so I'm posting this.

What did you expect?

Authors in the Artists and Translators section should not appear in Writers.

    <dc:description>&lt;div&gt;
&lt;p&gt;나의 삶에는 앞으로 뭐하나 좋은 일 따위는 없다고 한다. 수명의 “감정 가격”이 1년에 겨우 1만 엔뿐이였던 것은 그 때문이다.&lt;br&gt;미래를 비관해 수명의 대부분을 팔아버린 나는, 얼마 안 되는 여생에서 행복을 잡으려고 혈안이 되지만 무엇을 해도 엉뚱한 결과를 낳는다. 헛돌기만 하는 나를 차가운 눈으로 바라보는 “감시원” 미야기. 그녀를 위해서 사는 것이야말로 가장 행복한 것임을 깨달았을 때, 나의 수명은 2개월도 남지 않았다.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</dc:description>
