mmm... i admit, it's burried a bit in the manual. the very last paragraph
in section 2.1 "Getting Started" mentions it.

anyway, ebib is meant to be used with bibtex files, and bibtex is meant to
be used with latex, not as a stand-alone bibliography database engine. so
if you just want to create a database of your books and dvds, and have no
intention of using it with latex, ebib is probably not the best tool for
the job.
