--- Comment #1 from Esther Melander <estherm at sodaspringsid.com> ---
This bug popped up recently in 20.05.13.

Our consortium wanted to block renewals for Long Overdue Lost items in the
OPAC. We changed the ItemsDeniedRenewal setting so there are no custom rules,
which somehow prevents Long Overdue Lost items from being renewed in the OPAC.
However, this also blocked renewal in the staff client. All other combinations
of patron and item categories appear to be able to renew. Only items with the
item status of Long Overdue Lost is blocked - at least as far we can determine.

For a staff account with superlibrarian permissions, or specifically the
override blocked renewals permission the override returns an error.

To test:
- Use a staff account with permission to override blocked renewals
- Remove custom rules for ItemsDeniedRenewal
- Locate a patron with Long Overdue Lost items.
- Check the box to override renewal restrictions
- Select items that are Long Overdue Lost and click renew items.

System will return : Renew failed: item_denied_renewal

Koha should allow the renewal of items with the status of Long Overdue Lost
with the override renewal function.
