https://bugs.koha-community.org/bugzilla3/show_bug.cgi?id=40977 Bug ID: 40977 Summary: t/00-testcritic.t fails on Debian 13 Change sponsored?: --- Product: Koha Version: Main Hardware: All OS: All Status: NEW Severity: major 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 Test plan 1. KOHA_IMAGE=main-bookworm ktd up 2. prove t/00-testcritic.t 3. pass 4. KOHA_IMAGE=main-trixie ktd up 5. prove t/00-testcritic Failed test 'Test::Perl::Critic for "C4/Members/Messaging.pm"' Code before strictures are enabled at line 23, column 1. See page 429 of PBP. (Severity: 5) It can be fixed by adding use strict; or use Modern::Perl; Is that just a forgotten occurrence? Severity = major because it makes the CI fail and hides issues even if not as much as Bug 40680. Maybe critical, I don't know. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are watching all bug changes. You are the assignee for the bug.

[Bug 42092] New: Remove space in use of qw

https://bugs.koha-community.org/bugzilla3/show_bug.cgi?id=42092 Bug ID: 42092 Summary: Remove space in use of qw Initiative type: --- Sponsorship --- status: Product: Koha Version: Main Hardware: All OS: All Status: NEW Severity: trivial Priority: P5 - low Component: Architecture, internals, and plumbing Assignee: koha-bugs(a)lists.koha-community.org Reporter: fridolin.somers(a)biblibre.com QA Contact: testopia(a)bugs.koha-community.org Usual syntax for strings array is qw( xxx ), sometimes qw{ xxx } or qw/ xxx /. In a few cases there is a space : qw /xxx/. Looks like this is a correct syntax and not managed by Perl Tidy. I would prefer it to be avoided so that code looks always the same. Also it is not known in my editor (EPIC in Eclipse IDE), maybe other users are impacted. So I propose to patch it. Even add to QA tools if QA team found this a good idea. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are watching all bug changes. You are the assignee for the bug.

[Bug 40027] New: Use GitHub workflow to automatically close PRs opened on the Koha repo there

https://bugs.koha-community.org/bugzilla3/show_bug.cgi?id=40027 Bug ID: 40027 Summary: Use GitHub workflow to automatically close PRs opened on the Koha repo there Change sponsored?: --- Product: Koha Version: Main Hardware: All OS: All Status: NEW Severity: trivial Priority: P5 - low Component: Developer documentation Assignee: schodkowy.omegi-0r(a)icloud.com Reporter: schodkowy.omegi-0r(a)icloud.com QA Contact: testopia(a)bugs.koha-community.org CC: koha-bugs(a)lists.koha-community.org This is simply based on: https://github.com/mozilla-firefox/firefox/blob/main/.github/workflows/clos… Automatically redirect users who try to submit a PR at GitHub to instructions on how to submit patches and close the PR. Better experience for potential new developers (since they get immediate feedback, while still in the flow for submitting the patch). The sparse checkout of readme is probably required, so that the gh command knows on what repo to work with. The message text is a combination of the Firefox's text with what people used to write when closing Koha's PRs. I think it should be good enough but of course feel free to share any suggestions for change if you feel like it needs one. TEST PLAN: None honestly. This workflow is proven to work on Firefox's repo. The only change is adding \n newlines to the comment for readability, which I didn't test for whether it works... Otherwise it can only be tested after merging (either to Koha repo or to some dummy test repo if you really want to). -- You are receiving this mail because: You are watching all bug changes.

[Bug 17593] New: Extend circulation rules to include shelving location

https://bugs.koha-community.org/bugzilla3/show_bug.cgi?id=17593 Bug ID: 17593 Summary: Extend circulation rules to include shelving location Change sponsored?: --- Product: Koha Version: unspecified Hardware: All OS: All Status: NEW Severity: enhancement Priority: P5 - low Component: Circulation Assignee: koha-bugs(a)lists.koha-community.org Reporter: stefan.berndtsson(a)ub.gu.se QA Contact: testopia(a)bugs.koha-community.org CC: gmcharlt(a)gmail.com, kyle.m.hall(a)gmail.com We are in the process of moving over to Koha, and are still trying to manage all the details around this. Circulation rules are a big thing we have to tackle here. At the moment, we have multiple libraries, and within each library we have both open and closed stacks as well as multiple other segmentations, all specified as shelving locations (authorized value LOC). These locations are not always governed by the same set of rules, so it would be very helpful if the system could support LOC as a circulation rule condition alongside library, patron category and item type. >From doing a fairly brief look at the code, it seems GetIssuingRule and GetLoanLength in C4/Circulation.pm are the main points where the ruleset is retreived. There will of course be all the places calling these two functions, as well as database management parts to consider. If we were to develop some sort of extension to these rules, what would be an appropriate approach? It should certainly be an option to turn on to be used, but should we consider LOC as a starting point, or should LOC just be one many possible choices in the configuration? -- You are receiving this mail because: You are the assignee for the bug.

https://bugs.koha-community.org/bugzilla3/show_bug.cgi?id=16786 Bug ID: 16786 Summary: No longer to add multiple emails addresses in an email field Change sponsored?: --- Product: Koha Version: master Hardware: All OS: All Status: NEW Severity: normal Priority: P5 - low Component: Architecture, internals, and plumbing Assignee: gmcharlt(a)gmail.com Reporter: kyle(a)bywatersolutions.com QA Contact: testopia(a)bugs.koha-community.org Previous to Koha 3.22, it was possible to enter multiple comma separated email addresses in a patron's email field. This allowed a patron to opt to receive a copy of any given email in more than one address! Now the email validation disallows this, but there is no technical reason to disallow it as far as I am aware. The email validator should be updated to supported multiple comma separated email addresses in any given email field. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are watching all bug changes.

Koha recently increased the patron's barcode length to 32 and it was helpful to libraries. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are watching all bug changes.
