https://bugs.koha-community.org/bugzilla3/show_bug.cgi?id=40680 Bug ID: 40680 Summary: Many warnings on Perl 5.40 due to importing methods from not yet defined packages Change sponsored?: --- Product: Koha Version: Main Hardware: All OS: All Status: NEW Severity: critical Priority: P5 - low Component: Architecture, internals, and plumbing Assignee: koha-bugs(a)lists.koha-community.org Reporter: victor(a)tuxayo.net QA Contact: testopia(a)bugs.koha-community.org Cause of the issue: https://metacpan.org/release/HAARG/perl-5.40.0/view/pod/perldelta.pod#Calli… It's a problem with the fresh Debian 13. (it's time we have actual support, CI for it was disabled due to some other issue) Ubuntu 24.04 has perl 5.38 so it works cleanly. But the next in 2026 will also have this issue. == Test plan == 1. Start a Debian 13 Koha: KOHA_IMAGE=main-trixie ktd up 2. Tons of warnings on start but it ends up starting (see end of this message for the warnings) 3. perl -c mainpage.pl 4. Tons of warnings again 5. restart_all 6. Tons of warnings again 7. Things seem to work though (checkout, checkin, search in staff and OPAC) == Severity== Critical because it looks like Koha is broken. And it will hide actual issues. One case in chat from someone upgrading. And us thinking there is really something broken given their output: https://chat.koha-community.org/koha-community/pl/gd8xbsx4p3gadpnk5h8c9n3bzy follow-up: https://chat.koha-community.org/koha-community/pl/w71jx511ppf59cfqezgy1fpcrc And me who though my KTD failed to fully start. And when investigating, when running a test, it looked at first as if it failed. But no it works. == warnings == Attempt to call undefined import method with arguments ("get_session") via package "C4::Auth" (Perhaps you forgot to load the package?) at /kohadevbox/koha/C4/Search/History.pm line 5.

[Bug 20573] New: Patron receives membership expiry notice but 'will expire soon' alert doesn't show for staff at checkout

https://bugs.koha-community.org/bugzilla3/show_bug.cgi?id=20573 Bug ID: 20573 Summary: Patron receives membership expiry notice but 'will expire soon' alert doesn't show for staff at checkout Change sponsored?: --- Product: Koha Version: 17.11 Hardware: All OS: All Status: NEW Severity: minor Priority: P5 - low Component: Patrons Assignee: koha-bugs(a)lists.koha-community.org Reporter: jyorio(a)esilibrary.com QA Contact: testopia(a)bugs.koha-community.org CC: gmcharlt(a)gmail.com, kyle.m.hall(a)gmail.com We've seen a situation a few times now, where a patron comes into the library and informs the staff that they received notice that their account is going to expire, but when staff go to the patron's account and click checkout, the message, "Attention: Expiration: Patron's card will expire soon. Patron's card expires on ...", doesn't appear. This issue happens when the patron comes into the library exactly 30 days from their expiration. In this case, MembershipExpiryDaysNotice = 30 days and NotifyBorrowerDeparture = 30 days. So for example, the patron's expiration date is 05/11/2018. On 4/11/2018 the patron gets their notice, as expected. They come into the library on 4/11/2018 and the checkout message alerting staff to the impending expiration message doesn't show. Checking the same account on 4/12/2018 shows the message "Attention: Expiration: Patron's card will expire soon. Patron's card expires on 05/11/2018 Renew or Edit Details" on the checkout screen. I would expect the staff to be alerted at checkout on 4/11/2018 since the patron has been notified. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are watching all bug changes.
