            Bug ID: 29097
           Summary: Overdue fines for lost items reinstated even when item
                    returned on Fine Free mode

           Product: Koha
           Version: master
          Hardware: All
                OS: All
            Status: NEW
          Severity: normal
          Priority: P5 - low
         Component: Fines and fees

        Depends on: 23091

To recreate:
- Set WhenLostChargeReplacementFee ON, WhenLostForgiveFine ON
- Set you refund lost item value to EITHER refund lost fee and charge a new
overdue fine OR refund lost fee and restore overdue fine
- check an item out with a due date in the past, run the fines cron
- mark the item lost, confirm the overdue fine is forgiven and a lost fee is
applied
- set checkin to Fine Free mode and check the item in
- confirm your lost fee is gone and your overdue is back

If the item is checked in on Fine Free mode, the fine should not come back. Or
at least that should be a configurable option via a syspref. We have libraries
set Fine Free on for all checkouts for amnesty periods. This sort of return of
long-lost items is exactly what they're trying to incentivize with such a
program.
